HOMES THREATENED AS WILDFIRES BURN
SEDONA, Ariz. (AP) - An Arizona wildfire continues to claim acreage as it moves closer to Oak Creek Canyon and hundreds of homes on the other side of a highway at the bottom of the scenic canyon.
Fire officials say nearly 1,800 acres have burned so far and the wildfire is only five percent contained. The fire was slowed Tuesday night by cooling temperatures and decreasing winds.
In neighboring New Mexico, four fires started by lightning have burned about 40,000 acres in the tinder-dry Gila National Forest.
In southern Colorado, crews are facing a wildfire that burned across 8,900 acres about 10 miles northeast of Fort Garland. About 270 homes in two counties were evacuated.
A California brush fire spread over 10,000 acres of hilly terrain in Los Padres National Forest.
Smoke from a wildfire is seen from Highway 160, about ten miles east of Fort Garland, Colo., Monday, June 19, 2006
