BostonTimelapse looked out of his South Boston window towards the Blue Hills Reservation around 7:50 tonight and saw the red-hued smoke from brush fires in the park. He reports that an hour later, the fires, or at least the glow from them, had died down.
Kristen Eck at WBZ has some video from directly overhead the fires, in the part of the reservation in Milton.
The National Weather service is still calling for "much needed widespread, meaningful rain late Wed night into Thu."
