2025 Wildfire Season: Tablerock Wildfire & other Wildfires in North Carolina

I have been aware of the many wildfires burning in North and South Carolina for several days. I spent some time in North Carolina outside of Asheville several years ago and still remember the beautiful country in the mountains and valleys in western North Carolina, and I am saddened by these wildfires. The video that I shared above highlights several of the wildfires currently burning in North and South Carolina where recent rains have helped wildland firefighters achieve higher containment levels. Thanks to my friends at the B10 NJ Wildland Fire Page who shared this video on their website today.


One of the wildfires of note that I have heard of through my news feed is the Table Rock Fire that has currently burned 15,642 acres in northern South Carolina and bordering North Carolina. As I write this post, it is at 70 percent containment and is caused by humans. The fire was first reported on March 24th.
