2009: Large grass fires developed over central Bailey and western Hockley Counties late this afternoon. Both fires
developed by the 5 PM hour, when warm and dry conditions combined with breezy southwesterly winds to result in favorable weather conditions for rapid wild land fire spread. A fire south of Muleshoe charred 1,500 acres, but did not threaten any structures. Another fire in western Hockley County burned more than 2,000 acres. At least two firefighters sustained minor injuries when their fire truck was overturned in rough terrain while battling the blaze. |
