A Red Flag Warning​ is back in effect for much of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, as the fire threat remains high.

The Jennings Creek Wildfire has burned through thousands of acres in northern New Jersey and New York's Orange County, claiming the life of Spring Valley man Dariel Vasquez, who was working as an aide with the New York State Parks and Recreation Department's Wildland Fire Crew when a tree fell on him in Sterling State Forest Nov. 9.
