Oklahoma Wildfire Zero Containment Under 40-60 mph Wing
🚨 MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED ACTIVE FIRES & WINDS ARE FORECAST TO INCREASE 🚨
Over the past month, at least five deaths have been reported from people driving into dense wildfire smoke and crashing. Visibility can drop to near zero in seconds, making roads extremely dangerous.
More than a dozen new fires have sparked over the past couple of days across the Plains, New Mexico, Colorado, and surrounding regions. Hundreds of thousands of acres have burned nationwide, with individual fires growing rapidly in wind-driven conditions.
Today, winds gusting 40–60 mph will make fire behavior even more dangerous, spreading flames and smoke. Conditions will ease slightly overnight but pick back up Saturday afternoon before calming Sunday.
Red Flag Warnings and Fire Weather Watches remain in effect across the Plains, Midwest, and parts of the Southwest. Fires are easy to start and spread fast. More than 100 injuries have been reported, along with devastating losses of livestock, crops, homes, and personal property.
Safety Tips:
slow down in smoke, use low beams, and be prepared to stop. Do not drive into dense smoke.
Keep a Go Bag ready:
water, food, medications, important documents, flashlights, N95 masks, clothing, blankets, pet supplies, and cash.
Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected and the first responders working tirelessly.
