The cattle and ranch fires are small but are being fanned by strong winds.
Crews are battling two wildfires in the Colorado River northeast of Yuma, according to the Arizona Department of Forestry and Fire Management.
The Cattle Fire burned about 25 acres 11 miles northeast of Yuma. The fire is threatening utility lines in the area.
The Ranch Fire burned 6 acres just south of the Cattle Fire.
Both fires are burning near RV and mobile home parks and are moving south into less populated areas.
Crews expect moderate to extreme fire activity in the morning due to strong winds. Officials said more resources are being ordered for the fire.
