Carroll County Fire Chief Tracy Smith said there were “heavy pockets” of smoke in some areas of the county. He expected the smoke to be cleared out by Friday morning.
Smith said the smoke could cause breathing problems for some people with respiratory problems and that those people should stay inside until it lifted.
“We were getting a lot of calls about it,” he said.
