"It's smoke and fog right now, but the fire is not far,'' said Bill Hamilton with the joint fire information center. He said he expected the road closure to be in effect for at least several hours.

Hundreds more flee massive Fla. wildfire
5/15/07

LAKE CITY, Fla. - Authorities evacuated hundreds of homes after a massive wildfire along the Georgia-Florida border jumped a containment line overnight, authorities said Tuesday.
Firefighters pushed the flames back to the containment line, but dry weather and 15 mph wind in north Florida was expected to further hinder their work.
"If we can just get through today," said Russell Hubright, a U.S. Forest Service spokesman.
Between 250 and 500 homes west of U.S. 441 had to be evacuated for a second time when the fire line was breached, Florida Highway Patrol Lt. Michael Burroughs said. An additional 570 people who were ordered out of homes east of the roadway were still waiting to return.
