episode_narrativeVery hot temperatures, low relative humidity, very dry fuels, and gusty wind resulted in the spread of two large wildfires in Creek County. One of the fires burned 58,500 acres near Mannford and the other burned about 6500 acres near Drumright. Multiple state, tribal, and local agencies responded to these wildfires. Oklahoma Forestry Service's Type II Incident Management Team was activated to coordinate the response of all the agencies involved. Up to six Oklahoma Army National Guard helicopters were also used to battle the fires. Despite the best efforts of all the agencies involved, these two fires destroyed 376 homes and damaged 47 others. An unknown number of businesses, outbuildings, and vehicles were destroyed.
