| Episode Narrative |
Several large wildfires broke out between February 18 and February 21 because of the rich fuels and the very dry and windy conditions. Some of the wildfires flared up and continued through the end of the month as elevated fire danger or red flag warning conditions persisted. |
| Event Narrative |
A 1000 acre grass fire broke out in Coleman County. The grass fire was east of FM 2132 and south of Highway 153 near Talpa. The fire was 60 percent contained at 7:40 p.m. The fire burned one outbuilding and one vehicle. The time the fire was fully contained is estimated. |
