A wildfire turns deadly in Connecticut, while blazes break out in the Northeast

A firefighter died Tuesday while helping to put out a forest fire that broke out as a drought spread across the Northeast, officials in Connecticut said.

Wildfires were reported in Connecticut and New Jersey, and fire warnings were issued due to the high fire danger across the region. The NWS said a combination of strong winds, low relative humidity and dry fuels would create “significantly increased fire growth potential” and fires could spread quickly if one broke out.
