We have another day of enhanced fire weather advisories here in NJ and adjoining regions. I have not heard of any significant wildfire activity that occurred yesterday or is occurring now. Which doesn't mean that there is not significant fire activity, it only means that I have not heard of any.
I suspect that there may well have been smaller wildfires that were contained in initial attack, but have no specific knowledge of same other than a small (two acre fire now under control) reported on the NJFFS Section B10 webpage today.
I have blogged about aerial wildland firefighting since 2009. I am not a firefighter and am not a pilot, just an interested bystander who wants to learn more and share what I learn here. Join me here as I blog on the aircraft and the pilots who fight wildland fires from the air in support of crews on the ground. I also blog on concerns affecting fire crews on the ground as well as other aviation and meteorology issues. Learn what it takes to do jobs that are staffed by the best of the best.
