Wildfire threatens homes, sends ash over Ocean County
With two wildfires in just days, find out how New Jersey is managing the ongoing threat of the Jones Wildfire and its impact on local communities.
“The "Jones Road Wildfire" in the Greenwood Forest Wildlife Management Area spanning parts of the townships of Barnegat, Ocean and Lacey grew from just over a hundred acres early Tuesday afternoon to about 8,500 acres, or 13.3 square miles, by 10 p.m.
At 10 p.m., just 10% of the fire was considered under control.
At 6:30 p.m., officials mandated evacuations in the area of Route 9 in Lacey. Eventually, the fire threatened 1,320 structures, leading to evacuation orders affecting 3,000 people.“
Closer to home, very near the town of Jim Thorpe!

Probably caused by the windmills.
So I am assuming that saying the fires were started by Jewish Space Lasers would be a bad idea!
Feel bad for those in the area, but at least the smoke will help to cover up the stink that is New Jersey.
You obviously have never spent time in Avalon/ Stone Harbor
Grab the wife… Iacona Windrift or the Concord Hotel … great time…PianoBar at the Windrift is awesome
Wildfires in New Jersey not giving me a warm fuzzy feeling about getting my homeowners policy renewed in Arizona . Insurance companies believe in climate change ............
Whether they believe in it is immaterial. They will use it to their advantage wherever possible.
The stink in New Jersey is caused exclusively by the odorous white trash from Pennsylvania who first visit and then later, move there.
Upon reading your post, should anyone have a takeaway other than realizing that you’re an overt racist?
I could be misinterpreting, but you apparently don't know this poster too well.
I thought the stink in NJ was from the spoiled buttermilk at Hot Dog Johnny’s in Butzville!

Update to my assessment: Not mentally ill, just stupid. Seems as if it wasn’t malicious, he started a bonfire in the woods and didn’t extinguish it. Too bad for him, he’ll spend some time in jail.
I had a reputation at my job for being nice to everyone. Know why? Because up to around age 40 I made a whole **** load of stupid mistakes that by the grace of God didn’t end up being destructive. I came “this close” numerous times. Nobody deserves the kind of luck I’ve had. I was Lord of the Idiots.
Sage advice. I always tell people..."You can be an ahole and keep your job. You can make mistakes and keep your job. You cant be an ahole and make mistakes and keep your job."
