Multiple Wildfires Spark Evacuation Orders in Oregon

A level 3 evacuation "go now" was issued for Mount Tom residents in response to a 100-acre field fire on Priceboro Drive outside of Harrisburg, Oregon. Two task forces have been mobilized to assist with the growing fire, and the Oregon State Fire Marshal has additional resources on standby. Sheriff's deputies are notifying residents, and citizens are asked to avoid the area. No highway closures are in effect, but hot and dry weather conditions call for extra fire precautions.
