Georgia and Florida are battling numerous wildfires that have destroyed homes and forced evacuations.
On Wednesday, firefighters in Georgia had responded to 34 new blazes that had burned 75 acres statewide, according to the state's Forestry Commission. The Pineland Road Fire in Clinch County has grown to nearly 30,000 acres and is only 10% contained.
In Florida, firefighters say the state is experiencing one of its worst fire seasons in decades, with more than 130 active wildfires. Officials in both states cite dry conditions, high winds, and a lack of rain as key factors making the fires difficult to control.
