Brevard County Brush Fire's Smoke Shuts Down I-95

A brush fire in Brevard County, Florida, shut down I-95 on Tuesday, June 27, in the Cocoa area because of smoke conditions, according to a news report. The road was reopened before being closed again.

The Tucker Fire, triggered by lightning, burned 1,700 acres of land on St Johns River Water Management District property. The 5,000-acre piece of land usually is burned intentionally, the news report said. District officials said in a press release it intended to burn the remaining land on Tuesday.
