**Start Date/Time/Location** The Euchee Valley fire, part of the broader wildfires in Oklahoma, began on Friday, March 14, 2025, in the vicinity of Stillwater and Mannford areas[1]. **Size and Containment** As of the latest reports, the Euchee Valley fire has burned a significant portion of the total acres affected by the Oklahoma wildfires. On March 14, the fires collectively burned 170,000 acres, with the Euchee Valley fire being one of the major incidents. Containment figures for the specific Euchee Valley fire are not isolated, but overall, many of the Oklahoma fires remain uncontained or partially contained[1][5]. **Growth and Rate of Spread** The fire spread rapidly due to high-gusting winds, with average wind gusts across the state reaching about 60 mph and some areas experiencing even higher gusts. The fire exhibited extreme behavior, including 'firestorms' where fires spun into funnel clouds of flame, resembling the damage of a tornado[1]. **Containment Efforts** The response involves multiple agencies, including local fire departments, Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management, and federal assistance. The efforts are focused on full suppression strategies, with resources stretched thin due to the multiple fires across the state[1][5].
