Burning across Broward County, Florida, the active HOLEY LAND (6) Fire has scorched 3,500 acres of tall grass since starting on July 28, 2026. Managing the state-owned land under a Type 5 Incident command, a two-person crew from DVF responds to the natural fire, which currently exhibits moderate fire behavior with zero containment.
Situated 53 miles northwest of the Miami International Airport, the incident zone shows active spreading, with satellites registering seven heat detections over the past 48 hours to map the extent of the blaze.
