Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA red flag warning was in effect over southern Wisconsin on April 12 due to critical fire weather conditions. The Governor of Wisconsin issued Executive Order #191, declaring a state of emergency in response to the elevated wildfire conditions. Multiple wildfires were reported from April 12th to 14th, with the two most notable burning west of Warrens (Monroe County) and near Necedah (Juneau County). These fires burned 3,092 and 100 acres, respectively, with both requiring evacuations.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeCritical fire weather conditions led to a prescribed burn west of Warrens becoming uncontained, and eventually burning 3,092 acres from April 12th to April 14th. Many local roads along Arcadia Avenue were closed due to the fire, as was Interstate 94 and US Highway 12 between Tomah and Black River Falls due to smoke and poor visibility. Many families were evacuated. Three structures were damaged and one shed was destroyed by the flames.
