"Texas Faces Unprecedented Wildfire Crisis: Largest Blaze Merges, Threatening Long-Term Impact"

Multiple wildfires in Texas have burned over 1.1 million acres in the Panhandle, with one blaze spilling into Oklahoma. Dry conditions and strong winds have made it difficult for fire crews to contain the blazes, resulting in the destruction of 500 structures and the deaths of at least two people. The fires have also impacted the cattle business, with ranchers being forced to euthanize their animals. A cold front is expected to move into the region, offering some relief, while the nonprofit World Central Kitchen is working to provide aid to affected families.
