| event_narrative | High winds and record temperatures in the 90s combined with the already dry conditions across the area to increase the wildfire potential across parts of Oklahoma. Several wildfires occurred across the area on the first day of March. The largest fires occurred in Stephens county around the Duncan area and in Lincoln county in the Chandler area. These fires caused evacuations of many residents. The fire in Stephens county was said to be 8 miles long at times. Numerous fire personnel from federal, state, and local agencies worked together to fight the fires. Three firefighters were injured in Lincoln county. Two of the three firefighters were injured when the fire caused a propane tank to explode throwing the firefighters into the air.
