纽约州东部再发野火：四处步道与州立森林关闭
纽约州环境保护厅（DEC）11月2日下午通过社交媒体宣布，纽约州与马萨诸塞州边界附近的伦斯勒县东部又发生一起野火。野火发生时正值干燥天气；约一周前，伦斯勒县和马萨诸塞州西部刚刚发生一起烧毁约250英亩的野火。
因本次火灾，塔科尼克山脊步道（Taconic Crest Trail）、马蒂森谷步道（Mattison Hollow Trail）、柏林州立森林和塔科尼克山脊州立森林已全部关闭。环境保护厅发言人向媒体表示，这场火「没什么可担心的」，关闭措施主要是为了让公众远离步道。11月2日当天，纽约州全境均处于中等野火风险之中。
环境保护厅在上周末之前曾警告，异常干燥的天气使枯叶与杂物增多，公众使用篝火及其他户外火源须格外小心；厅长阿曼达·莱夫顿（Amanda Lefton）表示，绝大多数野火由人为引起。

New Wildfire Erupts in Eastern New York: Four Trails and State Forests Closed
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) announced in a social media post on the afternoon of November 2 that another wildfire has erupted in eastern Rensselaer County near the New York-Massachusetts border. The fire comes amid dry weather, about a week after a wildfire burned about 250 acres in Rensselaer County and western Massachusetts.
Because of the fire, the Taconic Crest Trail, the Mattison Hollow Trail, Berlin State Forest and Taconic Ridge State Forest are all closed. A DEC spokesperson told reporters the fire was 'nothing to worry about' and that the closures are mainly to keep people off the trails. All of New York State was under a moderate wildfire risk on November 2.
Ahead of the previous weekend, the DEC had warned that abnormally dry weather has increased leaf litter and debris and urged extreme care with campfires and other outdoor fire sources; Commissioner Amanda Lefton noted that the overwhelming majority of wildfires are caused by humans.
