Brush Fires on Saturday March 15

WMFD responded to two brush fires on Saturday.  Dry conditions and moderate winds made extinguishing the fires somewhat difficult.  Both of these fires burned approximately 2-3 acres.  As a reminder, even if the temperature is lower, and it has rained recently, after a couple of dry days fires can spread quickly over brush and grass.  Additionally, the KY Forestry mandated burn ban is in effect from 6AM-6PM for fires within 150 feet of a wooded area.
Units responding:  Engine 80, Engine 82, Brush 81, Brush 82, Ranger 1, Honda 1
