More than 80 wildfires rage across western US

Guardian News published this video item, entitled “More than 80 wildfires rage across western US” – below is their description.

The Bootleg fire in Oregon, now roughly the size of Los Angeles, is so intense that it has created its own weather system, causing winds that have further fanned its flames. It has been burning for two weeks and barely a third of its perimeter has been contained. The Dixie fire in California exploded in size to roughly 94 sq miles (243 sq km) on Tuesday, and is only 15% contained. It erupted on 13 July

Oregon’s enormous Bootleg fire expands to cover 564 square miles
