Wild Fires Ravage The West
Dozens of wild fires are ravaging the west. Hot Springs, South Dakota is being hit hard. Overnight rain and cooler temperatures slowed a wildfire that had raced out of a canyon. It destroyed at least 30 houses and killed one homeowner who went back to his home to try to save some of his belongings.The change on the weather gave the firefighters a chance to shore up their fire lines. But conditions could shift for the worse again. The blaze started by lightning on Saturday and by Monday covered 11 square miles just southwest of Hot Springs. This is on the south side of the Black Hills. It was 20 percent contained and fire crews hope to have it contained by Thursday.
