Dry conditions raise fire danger

BRIDGTON, ME - MAY 5: Matthew Bennett of the Maine Forest Service examines the scene of a fire at 183 South Bridgton Road in Bridgton on Tuesday. Jesse Allen, who lives at the address, said he burned scrap wood in the yard on Friday and Bennett said it appears that the fire reignited on Tuesday. Allen said he heard crackling on Tuesday morning, looked out his home and saw his camper and truck on fire. He gathered his children, got out of the house and called 911. Because it is so dry, much of the state is under red flag fire conditions through Wednesday night at 8 p.m. (Photo by Gregory Rec/Portland Portland Press Herald via Getty Images)
