Three massive, out of control wildfires continue to rage north of Duluth in northeastern Minnesota, as near critical fire weather conditions continue to plague the region, according to the National Weather Service.

East Range Police Chief Jorden Klovstad told the News Tribune that Hoyt Lakes is “in the ready stage,” should the fire get close enough to warrant a partial evacuation. Klovstad said he is relying on the U.S. Forest Service and St. Louis County emergency staff for updates and risk assessments.
