2024 New Jersey Wildfire Season: Wharton State Forest, Camden County (Initial Post)

November 4th, 12:40 PM

I was out for a couple of hours this morning and when I returned to my home office I saw this report from the NJ Forest Fire Service on a wildfire that is currently burning in the Wharton State Forest in Waterford Township, Camden County. I am not sure when this fire was first reported, but the post from the NJ Forest Fire Service was around 11 AM on November 4th. NJ Forest Fire Service wildland firefighters are at the fire assessing the situation and starting to build containment lines.

The wildfire has burned 45 acres and is at 50 percent containment. No structures are threatened and there are no road closures. Kudos to the New Jersey Forest Fire Service.
