Firefighters have a large blaze in the Sam Houston National Forest under control.
The forest is just south of Huntsville in Walker County, but local firemen and women have been assisted by Montgomery County crews from the south and Texas A&M Forest Service crew from the east.
The 75-acre blaze was first reported before noon on Saturday, according to the County Judge of Montgomery County, Mark Keough.
Southeast Texas has been under a burn ban because of unusually dry conditions with cold fronts pumping in dry winds.
But Forest Service and A&M investigators say they're curious about the cause of this fire, since it wasn't a controlled burn or "prescribed" fire that are often used for forest control.
"This was not a prescribed burn, it happened and we want to know how, County Judge Keough told Newsradio 740 KTRH.
"There were no clouds in the sky so there was no lightning, so we can safely assume that wasn't it, but Texas A&M and the Forest Service, they'll know and they'll come up with a reason for this."
