周日早些时候,一场快速蔓延的野火从内华达山脉山麓向里诺市中心蔓延,迫使近1.4万座房屋疏散。
随着霍克山火蔓延至超过10500英亩,“立即撤离”区域已波及内华达大学校园边缘。截至周日上午,火势完全未得到控制。

州长乔·隆巴多宣布瓦肖县进入紧急状态,并动员内华达国民警卫队支援空中灭火行动,派出2组直升机机组人员和60名士兵协助警方警戒疏散社区。
“这是一场动态且快速恶化的险情,我敦促受影响区域的所有人保持警惕,听从当地官员的指挥,”隆巴多在社交媒体发布的声明中说道。“全州已全面投入行动,我们正与地方当局和应急人员并肩作战,调动一切可用资源保护生命、守护社区,确保内华达州民众远离危险。”

据特拉基米多斯消防救援局声明,这场火灾据称于周六燃起,在强阵风、低湿度和干燥植被的助推下全天大幅蔓延。
瓦肖县特拉基米多斯消防救援局局长理查德·爱德华兹在社交媒体发布的视频中表示:“霍克山火对我们而言是一场极为复杂的险情,风力直接推动火势蔓延。”“由大风驱动的野火会快速向居民区推进,给消防员营救被困人员、抢救房屋带来极大挑战。”
火灾区域周边遍布居民区,周日瓦肖县近1万座住宅和商铺断电。美国395号国道这条南北向主要干线的部分路段因山火关闭。里诺市总人口超过28万。
“如果接到撤离通知,请不要拖延!”里诺市市长希拉里·希夫周六深夜在社交媒体发布的声明中说道。“这场火灾已经烧毁了部分建筑,生命远比财物重要。在火势抵达前完成撤离,也能让我们的消防员集中精力扑救山火。”
里诺的赌场为疏散居民提供酒店客房折扣。
内华达州瓦肖县应急部门开放里诺-斯帕克斯会议中心接收疏散人员,但表示疏散人员不得携带宠物——小型和大型宠物需安置在另外两处地点。瓦肖县西北专科医院表示,出于万全考虑已转移所有住院患者。
“患者和医护人员的安全与健康始终是我们的首要任务,”北内华达卫生系统在社交媒体发布的声明中说道。
里诺-塔霍国际机场不在疏散区域范围内,周日机场的商业航班未受影响。规模较小的里诺-斯特德机场因霍克山火关闭通用航空通道,但仍对消防飞机开放。
据内华达国民警卫队消息,本月早些时候,里诺北部三场由炎热干燥大风天气引发的野火已迫使超过1.3万居民离家疏散。
Fast-growing Hawk Fire near Reno, Nevada forces thousands to evacuate

A fast-growing wildfire spread from the Sierra foothills toward the center of Reno early Sunday, forcing nearly 14,000 homes to be evacuated.
The “GO NOW” zone reached the edge of the University of Nevada campus as the Hawk Fire grew to more than 10,500 acres. As of Sunday morning, it was 0% contained.

Gov. Joe Lombardo declared a state of emergency in Washoe County and mobilized the Nevada National Guard to support aerial firefighting with two helicopter crews as well as 60 troops to help police safeguard evacuated neighborhoods.
“This is an active and rapidly evolving situation, and I urge everyone in the affected areas to remain vigilant and follow the direction of local officials,” Lombardo said in a statement posted on social media. “The state is fully engaged, and we are working alongside local authorities and first responders to deploy every available resource to protect lives, safeguard communities, and keep Nevadans out of harm’s way.”

The fire apparently began Saturday and grew significantly throughout the day, fueled by strong, gusty winds, low humidity and dry vegetation, according to a statement from Truckee Meadows Fire & Rescue.
“The Hawk Fire is a very dynamic incident for us as it’s being driven by the winds,” Richard Edwards, chief of Truckee Meadows Fire & Rescue in Washoe County, said in a video posted to social media. “The wind-driven fires move very rapidly into our residential areas, creating a lot of challenges for our firefighters to save homes and protect lives.”
The fire zone is surrounded by neighborhoods, and nearly 10,000 homes and businesses were without power in Washoe County on Sunday. Portions of U.S. Route 395, a major north-south highway, were closed due to the fire. Reno has a population of more than 280,000 residents.
“If you have been told to evacuate, please don’t wait!” Reno Mayor Hillary Schieve said in a statement posted on social media late Saturday night. “Structures have already been burned in this fire and your life is more important than a building. Evacuating before the fire arrives also allows our firefighters to focus their efforts on battling the blaze.”
Casinos in Reno offered discounts on hotel rooms to evacuees.
Washoe County, Nevada, emergency officials opened the Reno-Sparks Convention Center to evacuees, but said they couldn’t bring their pets — small animals and large animals were to be left at two other locations. The Northwest Specialty Hospital in Washoe County said it has evacuated all patients out of an abundance of caution.
“The safety and well-being of our patients and staff remain our highest priority,” the Northern Nevada Health System said in a statement on social media.
The Reno-Tahoe International Airport was outside the evacuation zone. Commercial flights at the airport were unaffected Sunday. The smaller Reno-Stead Airport was closed to general aviation traffic due to the Hawk Fire, but remained open to firefighting aircraft.
Earlier this month, three wildfires fueled by hot, dry and windy conditions north of Reno forced more than 13,000 residents from their homes, according to the Nevada National Guard.
