Louisiana’s largest wildfire doubled in size over the weekend but slowed to a crawl after a short bout of rain on Sunday night.
Predicted hot and dry conditions for much of the week mean the Tiger Island Fire in Beauregard Parish will likely flare up again, fire officials said Monday. The fire, which is burning about five miles from the Texas line, was about 50% contained on Sunday night.
