The National Weather Service issued advisories on Sunday from Georgia to New Jersey warning of an increased risk of wildfires.

With dry conditions across the Carolinas creating tinderbox conditions, wildfires are burning in the region. The largest fire in the Upstate is a nearly 500-acre blaze near Landrum in Polk County along the South Carolina-North Carolina that has required evacuations and was 30% contained as of the morning of March 3.
