(AP)  — The number of structures damaged or destroyed in the wildfire that swept through the California lumber town of Weed has risen to 150.  State fire Battalion Chief Scott McLean said Tuesday that a significant number of the structures are houses.  Authorities previously confirmed the intense blaze destroyed or damaged 100 homes, a saw mill and a church.  McLean said three firefighters lost their homes in the fire.  The intense blaze erupted Monday south of Weed. Winds gusting up to 40 mph pushed the flames into town, where they quickly chewed through a hillside neighborhood. The cause is still under investigation.
