YNN's Chris Cybulski reports from the Pigeon Forge fire earlier Sunday.

Some Pflugerville residents rushed to grab everything they could Sunday when a large brush fire threatened area homes. The blaze originated as a structure fire on Pigeon Forge Lane.

Firefighters say high winds made it difficult to get the fire under control

Winds later carried embers miles across a cotton field along Wells Branch Road into another neighborhood, forcing more evacuations.
