(Portland, OR) -- Over a million acres in Oregon have burned from wildfires and it's still early in the fire season. There are 55 large fires in the Northwest. Washington state has 11 fires and Oregon has 44 major fires. There are many more smaller fires. 12-thousand firefighters are working in the two states. That's nearly half of all the wildland firefighters working in the U.S. Firefighters are coming from Australia and New Zealand to help supplement crews here.
