I understand from the NJ Forest Fire Service's (NJFFS) earlier posts on X, formerly Twitter, as well as a post on the B10 NJ Wildland Fire page that the Scotland Run Wildfire in Franklin Township, Gloucester County was spotted by the Blue Anchor Fire Tower at about 3:34 PM on Wednesday, March 12. Early on 60 structures were threatened but there were no evacuations. New Jersey Forest Fire Service crews will remain on scene to strengthen containment lines and to be sure that any areas of concern are addressed. For those of you who might be interested. you should be able to look at the NJFFS's earlier posts on this fire on their Facebook account: initial report, second report and the third report. I shared their final report posted to their X account below. I added the two embedded videos to this post about 1 PM on March 14th, thanks to my friends at the B10 NJ Wildland Fire page for sharing these videos today.
