A wildfire in Washington State has burned down nearly 30 homes since Sunday. 

Hundreds were forced to evacuate after winds drove the fire into the city of Wenatchee, where temperatures have soared into the triple digits over the past week, ABC News reports. 

The blaze ignited Sunday on a remote hillside outside the city, but spread quickly into residential and commercial areas, overwhelming firefighters. 

"We've got hundreds of homes under evacuation notices," Rich Magnussen of the Chelan County Emergency Management Office said.
