A massive wildfire on Neversink Mountain in Reading, Pennsylvania, began late Friday night, prompting mandatory evacuations of nearby residents and threatening approximately 100 homes. By Saturday, the fire was mostly under control with no damage to structures, and residents were evacuated to Amanda E. Stout Elementary School, where the American Red Cross set up a temporary center for assistance. Firefighters from several agencies, including the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, are working to extinguish hot spots, and the cause of the fire is still under investigation. Although residents have started returning home, authorities advise caution due to persistent smoke and potential fire resurgence. This incident is part of a series of wildfires affecting the region, exacerbated by a prolonged dry spell and leading to a countywide burn ban.
