PANAMA CITY, Fla. -- Firefighters and emergency workers battled two massive wildfires Sunday in an area of the Florida Panhandle that was still recovering from destruction caused by a Category 5 hurricane more than three years ago.
"No homes damaged. No injuries to residents or responders. Big win for Bay County!" Bay County emergency officials tweeted early Sunday."It is NOT safe to return home at this time. Please be patient as first responders battle these dangerous fires," Bay County officials posted online."We understand and recognize that everyone is anxious to go back home, and that it has been a huge inconvenience," said Valerie Sale, a Bay County spokeswoman.
Fire officials said Florida Forest Service helicopters had dropped more than 103,000 gallons of water on the Adkins Avenue fire since Friday, and 25 bulldozers had been deployed to plow fire lines.
