Fast-moving wildfires scorch thousands of acres across the West, and there’s more danger ahead

Fast-moving wildfires are scorching thousands of acres across the western United States, driven by low humidity, dry vegetation, and strong winds. The Aspen Acres Fire in Colorado burned over 28,000 acres and 155 structures, while the Snyder Fire killed three firefighters. Evacuations are ongoing as dangerous fire weather persists through the week.
