Last night Poplarville Fire Department hosted training. The training was a multi-company drill with Pearl River County Fire Service. The drill consisted of search and rescue operations in a smoke filled enviroment. This training is key for multi agency responses to structure fires. Thank you to Captain Hunter Averett who coordinated the drill and all of the firefighters that attended the training.

This is the cause of the smoke that is in the city and much of Pearl River County.

The Mississippi Forestry Commission is working to contain a large fire in Hancock County, which is producing heavy smoke across the area.

Be advised that the smoke may remain in the area until the fire is fully contained.
