NORTHWEST FLORIDA – The Florida Forest Service this afternoon released the current maps of the Bertha Swamp Road fire as well as the Adkins Ave/Star Ave fire(s).
Firefighting efforts for these wildfires are being coordinated under the name Chipola Complex. When two or more wildfires are burning close together in the same area, they are often called a “complex” and attacked by firefighters under a unified command.
This morning, the Bertha Swamp Road Fire was estimated at 12,000 acres and 10 percent containment. The Adkins Avenue Fire was estimated to be 841 acres and 40 percent contained. The Star Ave Fire was estimated at 250 acres and 45 percent containment.
