Red Flag Warning issued for central, southern New Jersey

A red flag warning is in effect for parts of central and southern New Jersey, according to the National Weather Service.

"The combination of very dry conditions, low relative humidity, and gusty winds will result in favorable conditions for the rapid spread of fires. Any fires that develop may become difficult to contain, especially across the Pine Barrens region," the agency said.

Chopper 6 flew over a small brushfire in Vineland, Cumberland County along Route 55 around lunchtime Thursday. It's unclear what caused it but it was just one of many fires that kept crews busy throughout the day.
