This story is about a wildfire that started sunday, September 5, and that is still burning now. The fire has been burning hundreds of homes and firefighters are having trouble putting it out because the high wind gusts are carring it farther. Firefighters are doing everything they can right now but becuase of the wind it is very difficult.
This fire started September 5, and is still burning now, September 6.
This fire takes place in Bastop county, Steiner Ranch and Cedar Park, Texas, all Central Texas. It is important that it is happening in Central Texas because of the drought, the grass is so dry.
Reports say the Bastrop fire started by three small wildfires and they came together and made one big wildfire. Reports say the Steiner Ranch fire started by a lit cigarette but they don't know for sure.
Wildfires are starting because of the dry grass. Lit cigarettes are being thrown out moving cars and falling on dry grass starting sparks and a wildfire to start.
