Brisk Winds Spark Wildfires Across Maryland State
Western Maryland atop Piney Mountain near Cumberland bore the worst fires of the year as blazes spread across 75 acres. In Anne Arundel and Montgomery counties fires were set deliberately and a Charles County blaze destroyed 15 acres of pine for Clodfleier Paper Co. Firefighting crews faced rough terrain with 75 to 100 volunteers, aided by forestry units from Rawlings and several counties, as backfires and dry conditions hindered progress.
