The World Cup final between Spain and Argentina is scheduled to take place Sunday in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Authorities said at least 100 firefighters are battling the massive flames and smoke, which can be seen from miles away.
Houston is dealing with a sustained haze from Mexico and Central America wildfires. While climate change doesn't necessarily cause the fires, it may play a role in whether the smoke hangs around, and that could pose a risk to your health.
The prescribed fire will take place between Feb. 20 and Feb. 22. Residents and drivers in close proximity to the burn may notice smoke rising from the fire.
Fire officials said the smoke came from some kind of fire in a trash can. They're still working to figure out if the fire was accidentally or intentionally set.
In a late update, officials said the fire was put out but that the La Porte Fire Department remained on the scene to put out hot spots and recover two grass rigs caught in the flames.
