CNN) -- Several grass fires blazed across parts of Oklahoma and Texas Tuesday, scorching fields, trees and houses, officials said.

The largest appeared to be in Mustang, a city of about 15,000 just west of Oklahoma City, according to Maj. Brian Stanaland of the Oklahoma City Fire Department.

Aerial video showed flames tearing through several homes and cars in Mustang.

Some residents could be seen fleeing neighborhoods as the flames drew closer.

"We've been having fires for two months now because we've had no rain," Stanaland told CNN. "We've got dry, brittle conditions. ... It's a recipe for disaster."

Two brushfires closer to Oklahoma City are under control, Stanaland said.

One of them was caused by children playing with fireworks in a shed, he said.

Mustang Mayor Jag McDowell said his community has called in reinforcements from neighboring cities to help douse the flames.

Aerial video also showed grass fires surrounding homes in suburban Arlington, Texas, between Dallas and Fort Worth. One man attempted to keep the flames at bay using a garden hose.

The National Weather Service warned of "exceptionally dangerous wildfire conditions" for the southern half of Oklahoma and northwestern Texas through Tuesday evening, with low humidity and wind gusts over 45 mph.

High winds also contributed to wildfires last month that destroyed homes, forced hundreds to evacuate and injured firefighters in parts of Oklahoma and Texas. (Full story)
