Heavy rain over the weekend halted the progress of two wildfires in southern Georgia, which have destroyed over 100 homes. Despite this, crews responded to 10 new blazes throughout the drought-stricken state. The rain helped firefighting efforts but was not enough to put the fires out, according to the Georgia Forestry Commission. The second-largest blaze, the Highway 82 Fire, has been burning since April 20 and has destroyed at least 87 homes and scorched more than 35 square miles (90 square kilometers). The biggest blaze is the Pineland Road Fire, which has scorched over 50 square miles and at least 35 homes in a sparsely populated and heavily wooded part of Georgia. No deaths or injuries have been reported in Georgia, but in Florida, volunteer firefighter James “Kevin’s” Crews died after suffering unspecified medical treatment.
