Officials in Texas are working to extinguish large wildfires burning nearly 40,000 acres across multiple counties in the state.

Four fires that started over Wednesday and Thursday – the Walling, Wheat Field, Kidd and Oakmont fires – were combined for management purposes into the Eastland Complex, according to Texas A&M Forest Service, with the combined total of the flames covering 39,883 acres.

Multiple evacuations were ordered for affected towns, including Carbon, Lake Leon and Gorman, and sections of Highway 6 were closed, fire officials said.
