Note: Last update will be Friday, unless there is a significant change in fire behavior on the Honey Prairie Fire. Racepond and Sweat Fire Again are in patrol status.
As winds shift from the east to the west, smoke from the Honey Prairie Fire could affect communities on the east side of the fire such as Hoboken, Nahunta and Folkston. No precipitation has occurred on the fire complex in the last 48 hours. As the predicted relative humidity decreases and temperature increases, there is the possibility of re-burn. As pine needles in the trees are scorched during a wildfire, they will drop to the forest floor below within a few days. If the ground still holds heat, fires could flare up once more.
