High Fire Danger in the Twin Tiers

While investigators are looking into the cause of a huge brush fire that charred seven acres in the Town of Windsor over the weekend, the National Weather Service is issuing a Red Flag Warning for fire danger from 1 p.m. until 7 p.m. May 4.

Outdoor burning is already prohibited in New York State through May 15.

Nine fire departments were called to the brush fire on Philips Road May 3, some using all terrain vehicles and brush trucks to access the steep site.

There were no injuries reported.
