Fueled by dry and unusually warm weather, a massive wildfire has ravaged over 250,000 acres across the Texas panhandle, prompting widespread evacuations, road closures and thick smoke — which has engulfed the area. The Smokehouse Creek Fire, now the largest among multiple wildfires in northern Texas, has rapidly expanded since igniting on Monday afternoon, exacerbated by red-flag conditions indicating extreme fire behaviour.
As of Tuesday evening, the Smokehouse Creek Fire ranks as the fifth-largest wildfire in Texas history, surpassing the total area burned by all fires in the state last year.
Evacuation orders are in effect for several communities, including Moore and Potter counties, and parts of Roberts County near the Oklahoma border.
Wildfires are also burning in Oklahoma, the neighbouring state, prompting evacuations.
