    Alpha-Gal Syndrome

    What’s this? Pineys don’t eat seafood? Barnegat Bay is nothing more then an extension of the pines. You just need it cooked right. I’ll bet there’s a few of us on here that have a couple family recipes that would make you actually enjoy fish. My wife refused to eat fish until she met me lol

    Would you consider this one? If so I know exactly what this field was. https://boydsmaps.com/#17.44/39.716625/-74.839211/mbx3dmidatl/-13.15/0.00

    Fire Ecology in the Pines

    I’m sure it is possible. Would you be going in the woods on a dry day with 60+ mph winds? There was aerial footage I was amazed how fast it was going. You could see it moving even in a few second clip

    Tornado Touchdown?

    My guess would be a microburst.

    Atco Dragway Fire

    The area you outlined matches up perfectly to the area that has been control burned over the past several decades. I know it well. Just for perspective of the size of this fire. I think that area highlighted is around 200 acres.

    Atco Dragway Fire

    I’d be willing to bet there will be a lot of un burnt sections in the interior of this fire.

    Atco Dragway Fire

    Yes I’m only guessing. There isn’t really any defensible fire breaks to the north except the power lines. I didn’t map it out but my guess this morning was 1,000 to 1,500 acres for the final size. At least that’s what I told my son but I’m purely guessing

    Atco Dragway Fire

    When I went by this morning there was a plow line along the power lines to Jackson road. So they were setting up to burn from the power lines to the county line bridge and then likely down the road immediately after. Not sure how far down that road but it could be all the way to the cranberry bogs.

    Atco Dragway Fire

    Jackson Rd from Tremont Ave to Atsion Rd (Shamong) closed indefinitely due to a forest fire, avoid the area. No immediate threat to residental areas.

    Atco Dragway Fire

    I’m guessing they are briefing this morning and waiting for the burn window to start firing it in. I suspect the acreage to climb dramatically. Most of the backfiring should be done by 3:00 or so. Last night was probably monitoring it and improving the containment lines that they are planning...

    Atco Dragway Fire

    Thanks, I suspected that but couldn’t confirm. There seemed to be more division B units there as well. I suspect there might be a lot of backfiring today. That’s a difficult area

    Atco Dragway Fire

    The fire is reported to be in c-11. I did the same thing but I used the snack center as my reference since the grand stand is no longer there and came up with the similar line. Using that line the fire is on the Camden county side of the Mullica. Since the fire is reported in Camden county...

    Atco Dragway Fire

    The kids and I went out to check it out. Given that the fire is reported in section C-11 I would assume it at least started in Camden county. The way the smoke is blowing it’s definitely heading towards Medford and Shamong. Hopefully it doesn’t cross the Mullica. It will be interesting how this...

    Atco Dragway’s Closure Has Drawn More Interest In Woodland Roadway Known For Illegal Street Racing, Says Resident In Asking For Enforcement

    I don’t have much expertise in corporate mechanics either. But I did expect that when the deed became public it still wouldn’t reveal the true purpose it was purchased. This wasn’t a spur of the moment sale and was at least several months in the making. There’s still a lot of speculation out...
