Windy conditions around the Inland Northwest sparked more than a dozen wildfires over Labor Day weekend. Hundreds of thousands of acres are still burning on Friday. Tens of thousands of acres are also burning in North Idaho from at least seven wildfires. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee has declared a statewide emergency due to the ongoing wildfires burning across the state. He has also issued a proclamation that will allow people impacted by the wildfires to get financial assistance. The funds will be provided through the DSHS' Family Emergency Assistance Program, which has been expanded to also serve individuals and waive the one-time distribution limitation. "This is an extraordinary series of events we have suffered," said Inslee during a press conference on Wednesday.
