Widemouth Fire Rages Amid Harsh Weather | Salt Lake City News
Description
The Widemouth Fire is escalating fast, with crews racing to reinforce fire lines around Fillmore, Kanosh, Meadow, and Chalk Creek while aircraft battle the blaze’s southern edge. Blistering heat, bone-dry air, and fierce north-northwest winds are fueling rapid spread—embers can leap a third of a mile ahead. Residents in Millard and Sevier counties are on high alert, receiving emergency alerts and door-to-door updates as evacuations loom. Fishlake National Forest has shut down parts of the Fillmore Ranger District until at least October 15th. With weather worsening and containment efforts under extreme pressure, safety remains the top priority as communities brace for what could be a devastating wildfire season.
