State of Arizona is on fire. Not due to the temperature which is 106 degrees. Half the Northern part of the state is on fire - Wallow Fire is the name of this disaster.

A unattended camp fire has now burned over 450 thousand acres.

Over 20 homes have burned, historical sites gone. Several highways are closed.

Hundreds of people evacuated.

Firemen from all over are fighting this fire, with only 10% containment.

The fire is now crossing into New Mexico.

The smoke has reached Iowa and as far as Nebraska.

There are also a couple of small fires - unattended camp fires.

It's on all the National News - it's the worst fire Arizona has ever experienced.
