LYNN – Massachusetts is under a red flag warning until 6 p.m. on Friday as the state continues to see an unprecedented number of brush fires this fall.
There have been 167 fires in the last seven days, according to the state, and 317 in November alone. As of Thursday, 68% of the state was in severe drought, and the latest forecast shows no rain in sight. 
The most recent wildfire activity briefing from the Department of Conservation & Recreation says fires have burned 440 acres of land in the past week. 
Below is list of the biggest fires currently burning in Massachusetts, and where efforts to contain the flames stand.
Firefighters reported “heavy smoldering and creeping fire” at Mt. Gilead in the Lynn Woods Reservation. The fire is burning 427 acres and is 20% contained.
The Middleton Fire Department said Thursday that residents can expect to see more smoke, especially in the Lake and Forest street areas. Crews have been battling fire in the area for weeks and are monitoring perimeter roads to put out hot spots and flames. 
The 140-acre Cain Hill fire dropped to 60% containment and has been getting even smokier due to weather conditions, fire officials said.
