Eyewitnesses in Fishersville are seeing a wildfire on the slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains, probably up above Grottoes along the Skyline Drive. There's a glow that is visible from miles away ... 9/11 said it was a controlled burn but the extremely brisk winds today would seem to suggest burning, "controlled" or otherwise, would not be wise at this time.
Reports are the fire is near the ridge of the mountain with smoke and haze hanging over the mountain tops. Will keep an eye on local news reports to see if anything comes through.
