Two massive wildfires in south Georgia have scorched over 38,000 acres and destroyed more than 100 homes, with extreme drought fueling the blazes. The Brantley County fire has hit 7,500 acres, and the Pineland Road fire in Clinch County has surpassed 31,000 acres. Families have lost their homes and businesses, with one mans automotive shop, built in 1996, being destroyed. Governor Brian Kemp has called these the two biggest and most dangerous fires in the country, with one started by a party balloon hitting a power line. Crews expect intense fire activity through the weekend, and are hoping for a weather shift to help contain the blazes.
