episode_narrativeTwo days of unseasonably dry and warm weather contributed to the spread of wildfires in Burlington and Ocean Counties on the 3rd and 4th. Fighting the wildfires was further complicated on the 4th by gusty southwest winds. Late on the 3rd, in Burlington County, eight wildfires were reported. One consumed more than 25 acres in Pemberton Township. About 80 acres were consumed in the township before they were extinguished at 6 p.m. EDT on the 4th. About 50 firefighters from the New Jersey Forest Fire Service battled the fires along with local fire departments from throughout the area. One fire came within a half mile of several homes. Residents were alerted, but no evacuations occurred. The largest brush fire occurred in Whitesbog Village off of New Jersey State Route 70 in Pemberton Township. In Ocean County, a separate wildfire consumed three acres of woodland in Manchester Township. The peak wind gust at Philadelphia International Airport on the 4th was 29 mph.
