Eureka is a small Utah city (population ~669 in 2010) in Juab County, part of the Provo–Orem metro area; its name comes from the Greek for “I have found it.”
The Iron Fire in Juab County has blackened 34 square miles and forced Eureka’s evacuation. Firefighters have backburned to protect the town, with the blaze still growing amid drought. Authorities say the fire is human-caused and under investigation; multiple fires are burning in the region.
