Woods Fire
On Saturday March 22nd at 2:35pm, Station 36 personnel
were dispatched to a reported woods fire involving 5 plus
acres. While enroute 11-36 requested 2 additional stations
due to size of smoke column seen 5 miles out. Forestry 1
requested multiple additional forestry units and a dozer to
be enroute also prior to arrival. Units arrived to find a large
woods fire in excess of 70 acres with sustained winds in
excess of 30mph blowing to the Northwest. Defensive
measures were put into place consisting of back burns and
fire lines. Additional stations were quickly requested for
structural protection and also for fire attack. Operations
were broken down into Stokes and Rockingham Ops due to
the fire spreading into Rockingham County. Units were
deployed from Stokes, Rockingham, Forsyth, Patrick,
