Thanks to my friends from the New Jersey Forest Fire Service Section B10 Webpage where I first learned of the County Line Fire that is burning in Wharton State Forest in Waterford Twp., Camden County and Shamong Township in Burlington County, No structures are threatened; there is a road closure, a campground is closed, and a few trails are also closed. As I write this, the wildfire has burned 300 acres and is at 40 percent containment. In addition to NJ Forest Fire Service ground crews, the NJ Forest Fire Service has deployed an observation helicopter. The video that I embed below was uploaded around noon today before the NJ Forest Fire Service posted their 3 PM update (shared above). Thanks to the New Jersey Forest Fire Service for working to keep us safe. Stay safe.
Here are two reports from earlier this afternoon from CBS 3 in Philadelphia and New Jersey Advance Media (1 PM). The Burlington County Times just posted an update at 4 PM that may be found here.
