Fire Devastates New Mexico Towns as Drought Rages On
Across New Mexico months of drought have left tinder dry with over 200,000 acres burned. A Sacramento Mountains blaze sparked by a downed power line scorched 20,000 acres, forcing evacuations in Sacramento and Weed. Los Alamos lab area escaped major damage, though the Bandelier fire destroyed brush and threatened facilities. Officials estimate potential costs up to $1 billion and investigations into the blaze’s cause are pending.
