Advisory

Large Grass Fire on Green Bay's West Side - Traffic on I-43 May Be Affected

The Green Bay Fire Department is battling a large grass fire near Ken Euers Nature Area on the north end of Military Ave., north of Interstate 43 toward the bay. This area is mostly a park/wildlife sanctuary with some industrial businesses, so no homes are affected at this time and affected traffic in the area is limited. Currently, I-43 is open, but travel may be hampered by smoke or people slowing to stare at the fire. We have had reports of vehicles stopping on the interstate to watch/videotape the fire. BE AWARE: STATE PATROL IS IN THE AREA AND ANYBODY STOPPING ON THE INTERSTATE TO PHOTOGRAPH OR WATCH THE FIRE IS SUBJECT TO BEING CITED. Additional Nixle alerts will be sent out if conditions change.
