Firefighters battle 300 acre northern forest blaze and more
Two forest fires near Kinzua and Chapmanville expanded across about 300 acres as Titusville, Chapmanville and other departments fought the blazes for hours with bulldozers and planes patrolling. Officials noted unclear causes, possibly a motorcycle backfire or cigarette. Separate brush fires near Oil Creek State Park covered about 1.5 acres with no cause found. In Minot, flood danger lingers as Souris River declines slowly after cresting at 80 feet, with thousands evacuated and dikes holding despite ongoing sandbagging and warnings of weeks before full return.
