According to the state fire marshal, the fires grew tremendously overnight and together are estimated at approximately 300,000 acres, with the Beachie Creek Fire estimated at 180,000 acres.
I live about 25 south of Stayton, which may have to evacuate. Been without electricity since 6:30pm yesterday. Using my iPhone to type this after charging it from car.
Stay safe
Yeah, its been just like night time all day. These numerous fires just all broke out over night. Most of them in Trump territory. Go figure.
Heres a fire at a lumber company in Molalla that started last night:

This is just pure destruction.
Keep us posted. It sounds very bad.
Probably white supremacists starting those fires. /s
Mill City is pretty much gone.
Yes...I saw the pictures...horrible.
Yeah! And the Amish too.
Another fire just started in Mulino!
This is unreal!
I wonder how many fires will be started tonight?
I am patrolling my property tonight. All night.
And I better not see any suspicious characters.
Just sayin
We are facing evacuation here in butte county as the bear fire in plunge county jumped lines and is racing away. Ash calling all day. Surreal sky.
This is in Oregon?
Oh no...
I thought this was Marion, NC
Oregon down by Salem in the Cascade foothills. East wind came in and has fed fires making them bigger and more dangerous.
Marion County, Florida (Ocala National Forest)??
From the link:
“MARION COUNTY, OR (KPTV) - The Oregon State Fire Marshals Office on Tuesday said it is scrambling to respond to two wildfires spreading across the Marion County area in Santian Canyon right now.”

See key words, etc...Oregon
Yes, Oregon with fires all over now including down south along the Umpqua River. Almost every absolutely beautiful area is burning.
This is what mismanaging the forests for the last 50 years get you.
