>>Wildfires Burn Across Florida
(Tallahassee, FL) — Thousands of homes are evacuated in Florida as firefighters continue to battle wildfires across the state. The Florida Forest Service told CNN that 91 wildfires have burned over 25-thousand acres since Thursday. Two of those fires have caused the evacuation of thousands of homes in central and southwest Florida. On Friday, the governor deployed the Florida National Guard to help fight a massive wildfire near Naples that has grown to nearly five-thousand acres, forcing about two-thousand homes to be evacuated. Officials on Friday said that fire was only ten-percent contained.
