Wildfire In Oklahoma And Texas Is Now A Megafire

Wildfire In Oklahoma And Texas Is Now A Megafire—

Watch: Wildfires Devour Oklahoma Homes
A massive wildfire that started in Oklahoma and pushed into Kansas has grown to more than 442 square miles, according to Oklahoma Forestry Services. That makes the Ranger Road Fire a megafire that’s only about 15% contained.
The fire caused widespread evacuations Tuesday and Wednesday, as fierce winds and extremely dry conditions sparked multiple wildfires in both states and Texas.
Oklahoma’s Governor declared a state of emergency in three counties: Beaver, Texas and Woodward counties, as the fires destroyed multiple homes and buildings. Gov. Kevin Stitt said additional counties may be added if the fires spread.
