On Monday, November 6th, Pike County Emergency Services confirmed seven active forest fires in the county. The Kentucky Division of Forestry is currently working together as much information as possible to handle the larger fires before moving their attention to the others. Pike County Emergency Management Director, Knee Jackson, gives more details. We have seven fires currently. Three of those are being staffed and worked by the Division of Forestry. The other float for as soon as as soon as one of those Abner Fort, Big Hackney's Creek, or Hurricane of Stopover, once one of those ever one becomes deemed under control or where they can leave, break some resources, then they're going to go to the Pop Yard Hall of Fire in Canada and start working that fire. For the time being, it is recommended for those in the area to avoid burning anything while the humidity is low. With more leaves on the ground, a fire can quickly burn out of control. If you can keep from burning, don't burn right now. Try to give it opportunity for us to get some precipitation so that we can dry up. We have a heavy leaf fall from frost that we've had. The growing season is because of the cold weather that we've had overnight. The last few nights has killed out most leaf growth. So those leaves are going to start falling really fast and so that creates, that gives you a whole lot more fuel for the fire. Once those leaves fall off the trees and hit the ground. So it's very easy for a fire to take off and spread rapidly. Reporting from Outantop News, I'm Nick Collum.
