episode_narrativeA very dry atmosphere, increasingly dry and somewhat cured fine fuels (grasses) which were in vast quantity due to the high growth through the first nine months of 2010, and moderate winds allowed a spark from a passing train to blossom into a large conflagration on the King Ranch in Kenedy County on January 2nd. Several smaller fires also started in the Lower Rio Grande Valley, with limited spread due to rapid containment and control.
event_narrativeEmergency Management called in from Willacy County were notified of a rapidly growing wildfire in south central Kenedy County just west of Highway 77 near Rudolph. Before it was over, more than 7,000 acres of ranchland burned. Efforts from Willacy County Fire and Emergency Management, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and others helped contain the fire nearly 12 hours after it began. ||There was no property damage or known livestock injury or death; only wide swaths of grass, brush, and some mesquite burned.
