Thousands were told to prepare as fierce winds drove the largest active U.S. wildfire through drought-parched forests.

People in the west of Las Vegas, New Mexico packed bags and kept family members close after the fire burned within 5 miles of their homes near interstate highway 25, according to local officials and fire authorities.

"We're just gritting our teeth, there's going to be thousands of people affected," said San Miguel County Deputy Manager Jesus Romero as ash swirled around his home in south Las Vegas. About 20 miles north, crews fought to stop the blaze from burning homes near the village of Ledoux or moving further north into the Mora valley with other communities dating to Spanish colonial times, Abel said.
