SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Gov. Brown and First Lady Anne Gust Brown hosted the 87th annual "Capitol Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony," Friday.

This year's tree is a 66-foot tall white fir from the Latour Demonstration State Forest located near Redding in Shasta County, the seventh capitol Christmas tree to come from a state forest managed by Cal Fire.

The tree is illuminated by approximately 10,000 L.E.D lights and is decorated with more than 900 hand-crafted ornaments made by children and adults with developmental disabilities.

We were frying on Friday around northern California and the extreme heat will continue through Father's Day. Please stay cool in this hot weather and be cautious due to our increased fire danger through the weekend.
