The Curry Fire was a wildfire that burned 2,944 acres (12 km2) of land in Fresno County, California.[1] The fire started burning on July 1, 2016,[2] in the Curry Mountains, seven miles southwest of Coalinga.[3] The cause of the fire is still unknown.[2] The fire temporarily shut down part of highway 198, but there were no reported injuries from the fire and no buildings were damaged.[4] However, one firefighter had to be treated for overheating by EMS.[5] On July 3 the Fresno Country Sheriff's Department issued an evacuation warning for areas near the Monterey–Fresno county line.[6] Cal Fire officials strongly urged local residents to only use fireworks with the State Fire Marshal seal of approval to help prevent more fires in the area.[7]
