episode_narrativeSmoke from a prescribed burn across southwestern Leon county combined with other smaller fires across northern Leon county to produce dense smoke across portions of the area. A Florida Department of Transportation Spokesman said the smoke may have contributed to four crashes on Thomasville Road during the morning hours. One crash occurred at the intersection of County Road 12 with three other crashes at the intersection of Sunny Hill Road. A stretch of Thomasville Road was closed from County Road 12 to the Georgia state line because of smoky conditions. The intersection of SR-61N and Cherokee Plantation Road was also blocked due to a crash and smoky conditions. These crashes were due primarily to smoke from fires in the northern part of Leon county. The KTLH ASOS reported visibilities below the local dense smoke criteria of 3 miles from 11 pm to 10 am EDT with a minimum value of 1/2 mile at 8 am EDT. The smoke at the airport was likely due to the earlier controlled burn in southwest Leon county.
