Not all of the smoke we are dealing with is coming from Oregon and California.

A large fire is running and torching fuels outside of Twin Falls. The Badger Fire is about 20 miles outside of Oakley and reached 23,500 acres as of Tuesday.

Officials say they’ve seen fire whirls and extreme behavior in the area from the blaze with multiple heads.

The fire started Saturday (Sept. 12). The cause is unknown. There is no word on any structures being threatened at this time.
