Newberry Fire
By: Megan Z
About The Fire The winds out North were also very unpredictable, not knowing which way they are going to blow each day was a big struggle.
An out-of-control fire in mostly uninhabited backwoods grew to 14,300 acres Monday, fanned by breezes that draped an acrid layer of smoke over this village in the eastern Upper Peninsula.
No injuries were reported and no structures had been damaged, although some evacuations had been ordered and authorities warned about 125 residents at a community meeting west of town they could be next.
Biggest Fire In Upper Peninsula “This is probably the worst fire in the
Upper Peninsula in recent memory, and the emergency responders are doing a terrific job fighting the fire”
