New Jersey Prescribed Burns (March 19th)

I am glad to see that the New Jersey Forest Fire Service started to do prescribed burns in northern New Jersey yesterday March 19th. This probably meant that things have finally dried out enough up here, including snow melt, to allow for prescribed burns. For reference, the NJFFS has a county map of New Jersey showing current fire conditions and a listing of counties assigned to the three NJFFS divisions here. Middlesex County is split between Division A (northern NJ) and Division B (central NJ).
