Two of the biggest, still raging conflagrations are in Idaho's expansive Salmon-Challis National Forest, one of several places -- along with most of the rest of the Gem State as well as parts of Oregon, Utah and Montana -- where the National Weather Service issued red flag warnings through at least Sunday night.
The largest is the Halstead Fire, centered about 18 miles northwest of Stanley, according to InciWeb, a U.S. government-operated multiagency fire response website. Sparked by lightning on July 27, this blaze that's charred around 92,000 acres was still only 3% contained by midday Sunday.
The fire has prompted a number of evacuations, including that of the entire small town of Featherville on Saturday night.
