Firefighters on Friday continued to battle a massive brush fire in the Everglades that has scorched more than 42,000 acres of land in western Broward County.
A wildfire burning in the Florida Everglades sent the smell of smoke and haze into the air across South Florida early Wednesday.
The two wildfires burning in the Everglades, prompting an air-quality alert for Broward County, have combined and grown tenfold, burning over 19,000 acres by Wednesday afternoon, according to the Florida Forest Service.
