Makes you wonder if someone’s intentionally lighting these things. They just popped a Volley in LI for starting one. Wonder if it’s some fire bugs from the neighborhoods

Possible but also given the extremely dry spell we have had lately, could also be a byproduct of that.

Well the draught that the majority of the US is currently in has a large part of it. (NYC is currently in a Moderate Drought) Nobody is going around setting 229+ Brush Fires

Forest Park had some smaller fires recently. Hopefully there won't be any others, although we're not expecting rain for another week now. So many parks in Queens that are bone dry.

That lady probably isn't around anymore. I'm taking about the 80s & 90s. We use to go into the park on the horse trail. Ended up getting rowed out of there quite a few times
