They will match up people who have items or services to donate to producers needing help to rebuild fences, transport hay and similar farm and ranch activities. Critical fire weather conditions are expected in Texas and Oklahoma through Tuesday. Ongoing extreme and exceptional drought conditions will combine with low relative humidity values to create favorable wildfire spread conditions. For the latest information on the fires, including how to donate money, feed and supplies, CLICK HERE.
