The Hawk Fire has devoured 15,040 acres by Sunday afternoon, just a day after it was first spotted northwest of “The Biggest Little City in the World,” according to 8 News Now.
With the fire still at 0% containment, the danger crept closer as evacuation zones expanded south and east and residents were urged to evacuate.
