The Cram fire has spread to 95,000 acres, just shy of the 100,000 acres that would class it as the country's first megafire this year.

The fire, which broke out on July 13, exploded in size over recent days due to hot and dry conditions and gusty winds in parts of the state.

Fire crews are starting to get the upper hand on a wildfire in Central Oregon that exploded in size, fueled by dry conditions and hot temperatures. The Cram Fire has grown to be the largest of nearly 100 active fires in the United States.
