Firefighters remain on the scene of a brush fire at Inwood Hill Park in Upper Manhattan after it flared up again overnight. The FDNY said reports of smoke and flames came in just after 2:30 p.m. Wednesday from a large area inside the park,

The blaze in the park, at the northern tip of Manhattan, followed brush fires that burned in Brooklyn, the Bronx and New Jersey over the past week.

The blaze in the borough’s “most ancient forest” was the latest in a series of brush fires in the metro area amid record drought conditions.
