Largest wildfire in Texas history explodes to more than 1 million acres in 4 days across Panhandle

[FoxNews] A weak area of low pressure swinging through the Texas wildfire zones dumped some beneficial snow on Thursday amid freezing temperatures. As of late Thursday morning, the National Weather Service reported 2.5 inches of snow had fallen about 3 miles to the north of Amarillo. It's a welcome relief from the hot, dry and windy conditions that led to the explosive development of several wildfires burning through dry vegetation.

#7 There were a number of fire outbreaks that day, each in its own right large as the wind was steady out of the south at 30mph with consistent gusting. Then a front came through and in the panhandles it was a gradual shift from south to same intensity out of the north, allowing uncontained fires, like Smoke House, to pivot. Smoke House burned 500,000 acres in 24 hours. Several others ranged around 90,000 acres but got contained. Still other smaller local fires forced some evacuations.

With some luck, the wind shift to out of SW will have it eat itself at least enough to pinch the head to something manageable.

Relief convoys were in the works before the sun was up the next day and many were en route before next day noon. Pictures shown are very clean, dramatic melted vehicles and such. What's going on is an ammo shortage IYKWIM.
