(WLUC) - The Michigan Department of Natural Resources was assigned to help contain 13 smaller fires near Voyageurs National Park in Minnesota.They were also required to respond to new fires that started in their designated chunk of land during the two-plus week time frame.The DNR Wildfire Incident Coordinator, Keith Murphy, says even though the fire threat has diminished, the smoke could still linger in our region.“If the weather changes and we get those west winds or northwest winds, we will be smelling smoke for a while now. I don’t think it’ll be as significant as it was there a few weeks ago. I wasn’t here, I was up there, but we are going to smell smoke for a while from time to time,” he says.Murphy adds that crews from Wisconsin and the Northeast were also sent to aid in the containment effort.The video above will feature the TV6 livestream until staff can clip the corresponding story, if available, from broadcasts or other TV6 content.
