The Camp House Fire in northeastern Minnesota has already destroyed 144 structures, but it's done a lot more damage than that.

Three wildfires have burned a combined over 30,000 acres in northern Minnesota, destroying buildings and prompting evacuations.

Wednesday was a quieter day for the 15,000-acre Camp House Fire, with Ramsey saying there was a "little progress" southwest towards the Ault Town Hall, as well as into Lake County to the east, but there was otherwise "minimal fire spread," saying it was "definitely one of the slower days since it began on Sunday."

The three major wildfires are among more than 1,000 fires so far this year, which is on track to exceed state averages.

Luckily with this go around in the short term we have cooler, wetter weather coming. Places like California will undoubtedly continue to see worsening fire seasons but bad years in Minnesota could become more frequent, even if they are still overall rare compared to the west.

Three major wildfires raging out of control in the same Minnesota county have burned more than 20,000 acres combined.

The grim fight against the northeastern Minnesota wildfires​ continue on Thursday, with hundreds of evacuations and thousands of acres destroyed.
