The Utah County Sheriff's Office is ordering the evacuation of Diamond Fork Canyon due to the Coal Hollow Fire. The fire jumped U.S. Highway 6 yesterday, forcing the closure of a nearly 20-mile stretch of the road. Operations Section Chief Rob Powell says train crews have reported that power line poles in that area are burning and could come down, which would complicate the reopening of the highway. The fire has burned more than 19-thousand acres as of yesterday and is four-percent contained.
