Mexico’s Wildfires are Still Burning Recent world climate News
Firefighters in the Rocky Mountain foothills of Fresh Mexico are preparing to dig new firebreaks and remove brush to establish more defense lines in order to prevent a catastrophic wildfire from damaging more homes and tinder-dry pine woods.
The fire, which is currently the largest in the United States, has destroyed approximately 300 structures, including houses, businesses, and barns. Because authorities have been unable to survey the damage in some regions, the total on Monday is likely to be greater.
Late Sunday, the fire leaped a highway, taking hold in rocky terrain difficult to reach by firefighters and prompting a warning for more people of rural settlements to be ready to escape fast.
Los Alamos National Laboratory and community leaders in New Mexico are preparing for probable evacuations due to a wildfire in the mountains surrounding one of the federal government’s key nuclear research locations.
Officials emphasised that there was no urgency, but the fire was developing and was within 4.8 kilometers (3 miles) of the lab.
