| episode_narrative | The combination of southeast wind gusts in excess of 35 mph, humidity which fell just below the critical 35 percent threshold, and increasingly dry grasses were enough to rapidly spread a small trash fire to more than 1,500 acres in northern Hidalgo County near Edinburg. The fire, which threatened a number of homes in at one colonia and perhaps another neighborhood, was quickly contained by evening as winds dropped a bit and humidity rose quickly. |
| event_narrative | A small trash fire near Edinburg, at the intersection of Miller Rd. and Federal Highway 281, quickly burned out of control during the early afternoon of March 5th, aided by wind gusts of 25 to 30 mph and humidity falling toward the critical value of 35 per cent in the area. ||The Miller Fire eventually covered 1,650 acres. Sixty-five homes were threatened, and one was destroyed. Most of the homes were in or near the Colonia Muniz. A shelter was opened at the Brewster Elementary School, and housed up to 45 people before being closed during the evening. The Texas Forest Service and several local agencies responded. The fire was contained by late afternoon. |
