A large brush fire came dangerously close to homes in Edgewood.
KIRO 7 News StaffEDGEWOOD, Wash. — East Pierce Fire & Rescue crews are monitoring a large brush fire that came dangerously close to homes in Edgewood Monday night.
It started in the 16000 block of Valley Avenue East and burned up the base of the North Hill in steep terrain where a lot of grass and brush burned.Because the hill was so steep, crews had to attack the flames from above at 53rd Street Court East.Crews will monitor the area for several days to watch for smoldering spots. Early Tuesday, we followed smoke and found flames had popped up in the burned area.
But in July, August, and September, almost the entire state, except for parts of Asotin County, will have an above-normal risk for wildland fires.
