The largest of several wildfires in northwestern Colorado grew to over 100,000 acres overnight, prompting new evacuations. Fire crews have made some gains in containing the fire, however, going from 0% to 6% containment.

RIO BLANCO COUNTY, Colo. — The Rio Blanco County Sheriff's Office has issued a mandatory evacuation due to the Lee Fire.

The Moffat County Sheriff's Office on Sunday afternoon issued pre-evacuation orders for some parts in the northwest Colorado city of Craig, due to a wildfire that grew in the area.
