With warm and dry weather in Michigan, there are concerns about wildfires.

 

There was a forest fire in Sauble Township about 10 miles west of Wolf Lake.

 

Lake County Sheriff Rick Martin says crews worked on the scene for several hours.

 

DNR and U.S. Forest Service float airplanes helped local fire crews to contain the fire.

 

The National Weather Service in Grand Rapids issued a Fire Weather Watch for this afternoon and evening. Newaygo County has ordered residents not to burn anything on their property since they've been working to put on grass and brush fires.

 

The state DNR has also issued burn bans throughout northern Michigan.
