episode_narrativeThe strong winds on the 25th ignited a ten acre wild fire in Hillsborough Township (Somerset County). The wildfire was caused by sparks from a blown transformer attached to a pole that was knocked down by the strong winds. This was the second wildfire of similar size to affect Somerset County in February. The former wildfire occurred in Bedminster Township when a tractor in a field caught fire. February 2012 was the 2nd warmest and 6th driest February on record in New Jersey dating back to 1895.
