Wildfires Across Carolinas Fueled By Winds and Dry Pace
A 25 mile line of wind driven fire in coastal North Carolina burned over 80 000 acres as flames spread across eastern counties. Rain failed to arrive despite weekend showers elsewhere officials expected more fires rekindling with drying woods. Across seven Southeastern states a total of about 80 000 more acres burned while North Carolina rescue crews evacuated families and fought hot spots with helicopters.
