Before the breaking news, join us as we cover at least three wildfires burning in western North Carolina, including the Crooked Creek fire which has forced evacuations near Old Fort, North Carolina in McDowell County. The area was hit hard by Helene and now has hundreds of acres burning in what was described as an "out of control" wildfire. Tonight, WLOS's Jason Boyer joins the Carolina Weather Group with the latest on the fire -- and to explain the weather conditions promoting the start and spread of fires. With low humidity and gusty winds, the fire danger remains high. 📹 Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmhGiYbMDccQcdSjpf87nGg/join 🧢 MERCH: https://rstrm.io/e/YDmSpk 💸 LEAVE A TIP: https://streamelements.com/carolinawxgroup/tip 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: https://anchor.fm/carolinaweather 🔔 SUPPORT US ON PATREON: https://patreon.com/carolinaweathergroup 💻 VISIT OUR WEBSITE: https://carolinaweathergroup.com The Carolina Weather Group operates a weekly talk show of the same name.
