Gusty winds and a change in wind direction kept some area firefighters busy Friday night into early Saturday. Greenwood County reported several grass fires after sunset, including one that developed near 380th Street between T and U — about four miles northwest of Madison. Olpe Fire was called in as mutual aid shortly after 9:30 pm and was finally released a bit before 11 pm. The cause of that fire has not been released and details on the other Greenwood County fires have not been divulged.
