A rapidly expanding wildfire burning through southeastern Georgia has now consumed more than 31 square miles, prompting officials to consider potential evacuations as the blaze continues to spread.
The fire, one of two major wildfires currently burning in the region, shows no signs of slowing down as it tears through Brantley County. Smoke from the massive blaze has been captured in aerial photographs released by Governor Brian Kemp’s office.
Emergency management officials are closely monitoring the situation as the fire’s growth raises concerns about nearby communities and infrastructure in the area.
