fires

Within 150 seconds, a little spark in a makeshift living room, decorated for the holidays, turned into a 1,200-degree raging inferno.

Smoke from the west coast forest fires has reached the East Coast causing cloudy and hazy skies over New Jersey.

It happens when a container of flammable liquid with a long neck is poured out near a flame source, and the vapors built up inside the neck ignite in a streak of fire that can reach 10 to 12 feet long.

Fire crews who posted pictures during the Ocean Grove boardwalk were accused of being insensitive.

No students or employees were injured Thursday morning.

Fire fighters battled gusty winds to put out the flames in the homes at the corner of 54th and Landis Avenue in Sea Isle City
