Red Hill Fire Report — November 13, 2026
Crews suppress backing fire northeast of Brooklyn with no evacuations in place
The Red Hill Fire is burning on federal land within the National Forests in Mississippi, approximately nine miles northeast of Brooklyn in Perry County. Over the last 72 hours, the fire has backed moderately through timber, southern rough, and grass fuels while interagency crews carry out suppression operations. The fire poses no threat to nearby communities or property today.
Evacuations and Closures
- No evacuation orders, warnings, or road closures are in effect as of November 13.
- Perry County remains under an outdoor burn ban prohibiting all open burning and campfires as of November 13.
Impact
No homes, businesses, or structures have been damaged or destroyed as of November 13. No injuries or utility disruptions have been reported.
Conditions and Outlook
Gusty north-northwest winds will shift toward the east and northeast over the coming days while gradually easing. Dry air will maintain elevated spread risks across ground fuels before a slight chance of light drizzle develops late in the weekend. Interagency crews plan to continue suppression work on the backing fire, with officials projecting full containment by November 15.
