episode_narrativeLightning started a fire on Joint Base Cape Cod on July 22nd. The fire was discovered early Saturday (July 23) but burned through the night and into the following day (July 24). The fire was contained to 125 acres after 36 hours of fighting the fire. Dry conditions throughout southern New England contributed to the spread of the fire through dry brush and trees. Four helicopters from the Massachusetts State Police and the Army National Guard shuttled back and forth between Snake Pond in Sandwich and the areas on the base that were inaccessible to firefighters.
event_narrativeThe National Weather Service first learned of this fire via the Massachusetts State Police social media feeds, then later received additional information via the Cape Cod Times and Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency. The fire was reported to be contained to unused, wildland portions of Joint Base Cape Cod.
