Lightning is to blame for around 300 acres burned in a fire Wednesday about 13 miles east of Moxee, according to firefighters. Gusty winds and dry conditions from triple digit temperatures over the weekend caused the fire to spread quickly after the lightning strike, said Steve Kruger, deputy to garrison commander for the Yakima Training Center.
