Fla. Wildfire Causes Evacuation And Interstate Closure

March 02--A fast-growing wildfire is prompting evacuations at the Volusia-Flagler County Line and blocking traffic on Interstate 95.

The Florida Highway Patrol has shut down I-95 in northern Volusia County because smoke is limiting visibility.

North and southbound lanes are closed between U.S. Highway 1 and State Road 40 after smoke descended on the travel lanes.

The fire has grown from 50 acres to 100 acres in a matter of hours.

Cfnews13.com is reporting that structures and homes along Durrance Lane have been evacuated. This is a breaking story. Check back later for updates.
