Firefighters around the state have their hands full, as wildfires are starting to spring up all over the place.

Just after 5:30 p.m., firefighters responded to a call of a wildfire that was burning in to some trailer homes near SW 25th Street and S. Czech Hall Road, just to the south of Yukon. One of the homes was completely destroyed by the fire. Another home suffered some damage. Those structures were reported to be vacant.

 Crews have responded to fires near Enid, Hammon, Goldsby, Maysville, and many other places. High winds are making things more difficult on fire crews, with gusts of more than 50 miles per hour.

According to authorities, crews have partially closed I-35 at mile marker 102 due to the blaze. Several fire departments are responding to the scene.

The cause of the fires have not yet been determined.
