Multiple wildfires are burning more than 300,000 acres across six states in the western U.S. — including the Beckwourth Complex Fire measured at 83,926 acres along the border of California and Nevada.
The fires burn as the region battles another record-shattering heat wave that has strained power grids.
In California specifically, the fire season is off to a "daunting start," with the number of wildfires currently on pace to surpass last year's historic tally.
