A controlled burn of a rundown house in Mount Airy planned Monday night has been postponed because of the weather having a plan of its own.
This involves a fire-training exercise among multiple departments which was to have taken place at 220 E. Poplar St., coordinated through Surry Community College.
However, due to a forecast of storms producing conditions not suitable for a live burn Monday night — including wind and others — SCC decided to postponed the exercise.
It has been reset for next Monday (Nov. 1) at the same time, 5 p.m.
The fire training will involve members of the Mount Airy Fire Department along with the Franklin, Four-Way, Bannertown and White Plains volunteer departments.
