Wildfires

Wildfires – Arizona, USA

The forward progress of what was a small (150 acre) fast-moving wildfire has been stopped in the small mining town of Bagdad, Arizona, but not before 13 homes were destroyed and hundreds of people were evacuated.

Two new White Mountains wildfires are growing rapidly, with fire crews scrambling to get a box around them to prevent their spread.

The McDonald Tank Fire south of Tonto Lake near the Black River on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation started from unknown causes on Tuesday and grew to 1,500 acres by Thursday.

Meanwhile, the lightning storm that sparked the Boggy Creek Fire near Alpine had consumed 3,000 acres by Thursday morning.
