Wildfire in Francis Marion Forest | Charleston News
Description
A wildfire in the Francis Marion National Forest, which started on July 18th at just 15 acres, has now grown to nearly 900 acres—spreading through trees, swampland, and vegetation. Though firefighters have contained 10% of the blaze and 90 crews are battling it with firebreaks, wind gusts up to 25 mph could complicate efforts. Evacuated residents are being allowed to return—but stay alert. Rain on the horizon offers hope, while drones are banned for safety. The cause remains unknown, though most fires here are human-caused.
