A roaring wildfire stormed in Texas on Monday destroying nearly 500 homes.
The fire was accelerated by the roaring winds, remnants of Tropical Storm
Lee.
.
The wildfire destroyed hundreds of home and at least 5,000 people were
forced to leave their homes in Bastrop County east of Austin and about 400
were in emergency shelters, officials said. At least two people died in
the wildfire, officials said.
.
At least 476 homes were destroyed in the fire that raged into the second
day after erupting on Sunday, state officials said on Monday.
.
Bastrop a town of about 6,000 people was covered with huge clouds of smoke
into the sky.
.
The Bastrop fire is one of more than sixty fires that have erupted in
drought-ridden Texas from Possum Kingdom Lake in Palo Pinto County to a
swath of Central Texas not far from the state's capital city of Austin,
reports the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
.
The fire has also burned more than 25,000 acres (10,100 hectares) in
Bastrop County, making it the worst-ever single fire in the state. In
addition, 251 of the 254 Texas counties are reporting burn bans.
.
"I'm still seeing no containment," said April Saginor, public information
officer for the Texas Forest Service, who confirmed that the Bastrop
County Complex Fire has scorched more than 25,000 acres, reports Reuters.
