*Mussett Bayou Wildland Fire Update*
Florida Foresty Service is reporting that the fire is 70% containment with 575 acres involved.
This means that the fire has a 70% chance of staying within the established fire breaks/lines.
SWFD crews along with all our emergency partners will maintain a presence (day and night) until this incident is mitigated.
South Walton residents, guests and visitors alike will still see smoke and flames for several days however if you see those outside of these burned areas, we ask that you call 9-1-1.
SWFD would also like to ask everyone in our area to please watch out for crews still working.
We will provide another update in the morning.
Thank you for your outpouring support..we couldn't do this without you.
