Oregon Wildfires Surge with Major Complex Fires | Portland News

Published 3 weeks ago
Description

Oregon’s wildfire season is exploding, with over 70 active fires burning across the state—mostly in the central and northern regions—and already devouring nearly 700,000 acres. Two major complex fires, the Rowe Creek and Hay Creek Complexes, are merging and complicating containment efforts. Evacuations are underway in Crook, Jefferson, Baker, and Deschutes counties as flames spread and containment remains low on key blazes like the 27,000-acre Brewer Fire at just 5% contained and the 20,000-acre Powder River Fire at 24%. Firefighters are scrambling to protect lives and property as the state deploys every resource to battle the escalating crisis.
