episode_narrativeThe drought conditions that began in late winter of 2016, and continued through the year resulted in very dry vegetation across the north Georgia mountains by mid-autumn. These conditions were exacerbated by an unusually warm summer and fall, when temperatures averaged as much as 5 degrees above normal. In these conditions, a large wildfire ignited and spread during early November, and was not completely contained until a cold front brought much-needed rain to the area at the end of the month.
event_narrativeThe Rock Mountain Fire burned more than 11,000 acres in the extreme northwest part of Rabun County.
