A state of emergency has been declared in South Carolina as wildfires burn across the state. Dry and windy weather has caused more than 150 fires, forcing evacuations in several areas. Soldiers used helicopters to drop water, and firefighters are working hard to control the flames. Some people have returned home, but others are still waiting. Fires are also burning in North Carolina and Georgia. Officials warn that strong winds and dry conditions are making the situation worse. Rain is expected soon, which may help. No injuries or major damage have been reported so far.
