Burning on Buffalo Mountain

The wildfire burning on Buffalo Mountain on the outskirts of Johnson City continues. Crews continue to monitor the fire and contain it for the protection of life and property. The winds and low humidity in the area have caused wildfires to pop up in the area, and have caused house fires in the region where those burning debris close to homes lost control when the barrell blow over. Take caution as officials ask people to burn outdoors while the humidity is low and winds are higher and gusty.
