There is a wonderful site that has lots of interesting information about the progress on specific fires. It has periodic updates, maps, and information on the number of acres involved, the number of firefighters, equipment being utilized (our closest fire has nearly 900 firefighters on site, 4 helicopters and 25 dozers
). If you're interested, it's here:

You can click on the headings to sort by state, unit, or incident.
