Spokane Evacuations Amid Wildfire Crisis | Dover News

Wildfires rage across the western U.S., forcing 60,000 in Spokane to flee as at least 600 homes burn—no injuries yet, but officials warn it’s too early to celebrate. With nearly 400 square miles scorched in Washington alone and fires still uncontained, cooler temps and light winds offer slim hope without rain. Evacuees include VA hospital patients amid haunting images of charred neighborhoods. Investigators blame drones—26 unauthorized flights reported Sunday—and other states like Idaho, Oregon, and Utah face catastrophic blazes, including one in Utah that killed over 100 cattle. Communities rally: schools host emergency camps, courts pause, and federal aid arrives as the Northwest braces for a prolonged, devastating fire season.
