An 80,000 acre fire in Texas is 0% contained, say officials there. The fire, thought to have been started by pipe cutting on Wednesday, is expected to get worse on Sunday.
The fire, in the rural counties of Stonewall, King and Knox, is prompting evacuations in the region. The dry and windy conditions there are hampering efforts to fight the fire.
Conditions are worsening as the fire spreads and entire communities are now being encouraged to prepare for evacuation. |
