Friday June 27, 2008
Hot weather and the potential for new wildfires does not seem like it will end any time soon. With more hot weather and storms on the way, California is still in a critical fire zone. According to the National Interagency Fire Center, ten new large fires were reported in Alaska, Arizona, California, Georgia, New Mexico, and Texas. The situation in California continues to escalate where 34 fires have burned more than one-quarter million acres. Large fires in Arizona, California, and New Mexico have forced the evacuation of residences in several communities.
