New Mexico’s record wildfire.






















The total acreage burned was reported early this morning at 190,269 acres — a growth of about 20,000 acres from yesterday’s number of 170,272.  The blaze has surpassed last year’s Las Conchas Fire near Los Alamos that burned 156,293 acres and was New Mexico’s previous record wildfire, according to this morning’s Albuquerque Journal.
