A wildfire in mormon state County is at present burning several acres and threatening structures. On Wednesday evening, June 25, Utah Fire Info said that the Hub City Fire is burning on a hillside in Cedar Hills.
The X post says that the fire is “Estimated at 5 acres” and “Started on private land and is burning onto USFS lands.” Fire crews are on the scene. People have been asked to avoid the area “to keep access clear for emergency vehicles.”
The fire was an estimated 14 acres as of 10:20 pm Wednesday, according to Justin Roach with the Utah Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands, kslnewsradio.com reported. The fire is 20% contained. The fire is human-caused, according to Utah Fire Info.
A video by the outlet, shared on Facebook, has the caption, “Fire crews are responding to a #wildfire in Utah County that is threatening structures and burning several acres.”
Battalion Chief Brandon Boshard with the American Fork Fire Department said the fire started in the foothills of Mount Timpanogos. 60 to 70 firefighters are working to contain the fire, he added. They are prioritising protecting homes in the area.
Boshard said that at the moment, the biggest concern is the shifting wind. Crews are expected to work through the night.
