FHP urging caution as brush fire in St. Augustine may cause smoky conditions over I-95

Jacksonville, FL — The Florida Highway Patrol is asking St. Augustine drivers to use caution, as a small brush fire burning in the area of Crystal Lake Drive could send smoke over parts of I-95.

According to a tweet from FHP on Monday afternoon, the fire was approximately three acres in size and was producing some light smoke in the area of mile marker 313 on I-95. This is between State Road 207 and State Road 16.

If you drive in that area, especially at night or in the early morning hours, troopers are reminding you to reduce speed as necessary and use low beans as needed.
