In South Carolina, 175 wildfires burned across the state, scorching over 4,200 acres of land and straining firefighting resources, according to the state fire marshal's office. Response operations were ongoing in various areas, including Horry, Spartanburg, Union, Oconee, and Pickens counties.

A rainfall deficit and strong winds converged to spawn wildfires across Georgia and the Southeast this weekend. Experts say more blazes could be on the horizon.
