Forest Fire Outbreak Feared On Brisk Winds
Fire crews watched gusts up to 20 mph as dry grass risked new blazes. The Plains department fought a small blaze near a Lower Plains house on Thursday and earlier contained a Gould residence fire. Ohio Forestry counted two District Four fires, the largest two acres in western Monroe County and another about one acre in Pike Township near New Lexington. The Athens ranger office logged one call to Carbon Hill for trash burning not spreading to woods.
