Firefighters are still struggling to get control of this 500-acre wildfire near Possum Kingdom Lake that burned down several homes. A panicked Sharon Benson took a video rushing to check on her 88-year-old father when a wildfire broke out near his home on Possum Kingdom Lake on Monday afternoon.Teddy Robertson says his power went out. So he stepped outside and watched the flames grow just north of the lake. Though reluctant, Benson convinced her father it was time to go.

One of those residents is Susan Nance. Her husband is a volunteer firefighter. He told her their neighborhood was no longer safe. Her home was untouched. But just a few doors down, at least five homes burned along with five outbuildings. The Forest Service says around 4 p.m. Tuesday, the fire intensified. Several large trees were completely engulfed in the flames.
