episode_narrativeA fire which started in Marshall County on September 30th became a wildfire on Tuesday October 2nd, when south winds increased dramatically. Dry conditions brought on by the drought made burn conditions extremely volatile. The south winds increased in the morning and gusted from 40 to 50 mph by afternoon. The fire consumed over twelve square miles and led to the evacuation of over 400 people from Karlstad, Minnesota. Seven homes, two garages, a warehouse, and numerous other outbuildings were burned in the fire. One fireman battling the blaze suffered from heat exhaustion. The fire was 95 percent contained by Wednesday, October 3rd.
