Fires worst in 50 years sweep Florida panhandle and beyond
Florida reports one of its worst wildfire outbreaks in decades. Since Memorial Day fires have burned over 80,000 acres across 40 counties from Lake Okeechobee to the Panhandle, destroying more than 100 homes and forcing thousands to evacuate. Authorities cite lightning as a major ignition source and note at least 17 people injured and one heart attack fatality.
