Firefighters remain on the scene of a brush fire at Inwood Hill Park in Upper Manhattan after it flared up again overnight. The FDNY said reports of smoke and flames came in just after 2:30 p.m. Wednesday from a large area inside the park,

The blaze in the borough’s “most ancient forest” was the latest in a series of brush fires in the metro area amid record drought conditions.

A massive brushfire spanning northern New Jersey and New York broke out earlier this week, torching more than 7,000 acres along Greenwood Lake’s eastern edge, according to News 12 New Jersey. That blaze, known as the Jennings Creek fire, is only 30% contained.
