West Burns Hot and Dry

West Burns Hot and Dry

Published 1 day, 21 hours ago
Description

The Western U.S. is baking under record-breaking heat, dry conditions, and strong winds—fueling deadly wildfires. A Utah town was evacuated as flames raced toward homes, but firefighters pulled off a dramatic backburn to save the community. Still, the blaze was human-caused, and officials warn the fire isn’t done growing. Across the Rockies to the Pacific, temperatures soared far above average—with Utah in extreme drought and Arizona and Colorado also parched. Three hikers died in the Grand Canyon last week alone, as forecasts predict highs up to 108°F in the Southwest. And it’s not just the West: Florida’s western Miami-Dade County is also battling brush fires, proving this heatwave and fire threat is nationwide.
