Fires can break out, but they usually are not a primary concern as heavy rain tends to suppress them.
State and local authorities usually order the mandatory evacuation at least 48 hours before the arrival of a major hurricane.
A hurricane must be at least a category 3 on the Saffir-Simpson scale to be considered a major hurricane.

No. Hurricanes cannot occur in the middle of a continent. A hurricane can only form over warm ocean water and will rapidly lose strength if it hits a major landmass.
Hurricane Danielle is expected to become a major hurricane and is very close to becoming one, though she is not expected to make landfall as a major hurricane. Tropical Storm Earl is also expected to become a major hurricane, but again, may not make landfall as one. Beyond that there is no way of knowing.

Indirectly, yes. The damage from a hurricane can leave downed power lines and broken gas lines, and knock over stoves and other heat sources, potentially leading to fires. However, the heavy rain produced by a hurricane will generally supress fire during the storm's passage. Any fires that occur will likely break out in the aftermath.
No.

Electricity will probably be knocked out across a large area when a hurricane hits.
