The Jennings Creek wildfire has already torched 1,200 hectares (3,000 acres) across the two states, killed a New York parks employee and threatened dozens of structures, officials reported.
Wildland firefighting is a very dangerous profession, and we try to take as many precautions as we can to mitigate some of the hazards that are out there, said Jeremy Oldroyd.
In the New Jersey city of West Milford, veterans postponed their annual Veterans Day ceremony to focus on the firefighting effort, highlighting the community's resilience.
Currently, firefighters are spending many hours, day and night, doing all they can to protect our great communities in that area, according to Rudy Hass.
