episode_narrativeTwo large wildfires burned out of control for several hours across portions of Ellsworth and Lincoln Counties on Sunday, July 30th. The first blaze started late Sunday afternoon in Ellsworth County, just north I-70 between mile markers 207 and 208. Southerly winds of 35 mph rapidly spread the fire north into southwest Lincoln County, where it raged out of control and did the majority of its damage. One family had to be evacuated from their home. As this fire continued to spread, a second blaze ignited a few hours later just north of Sylvan Grove, near the junction of highways 181 and 18. Both blazes were eventually brought under control, and were finally extinguished by early Monday morning, but not before consuming over 1,000 acres of grassland. Utility poles, trees and fence lines were destroyed, but no major structures were lost. Fortunately, no injuries or deaths occurred.
