At least 121 structures have been burned down by wildfires in Oklahoma.
Saturday saw temperatures over 100 degrees for the nineteenth straight day.
Thousands have been evacuated, including the entire town of Glencoe.
Thirteen fires are burning across the state, at least one of which was the work of arson.
Oklahoma has asked neighboring states for help, but very little has been sent, as they are all fighting fires of their own.
Conditions have been extremely dry throughout much of the United States.
More than half the US is in the worst drought the country has seen since at least 1956.
