The last of the four Long Island wildfires that erupted on the edge of the Hamptons over the weekend and burned through 600 acres appears to be contained, but remaining smaller hot spots could still reignite, officials warned Sunday.
The final blaze, which was 80% contained by Saturday night, is believed to be now 100% contained, though fire officials were still tending to several smaller hot spots to prevent potential further flare-ups, said Mike Martino, the spokesman for Suffolk County Executive Ed Romain, to The Post.
While gusty winds had threatened to spread the blazes through the wealthy parts of the Hamptons, no homes or businesses in the area have been damaged, Martino said.
The fires, which broke out just after 1 p.m. Saturday, were at one point 2 miles long and 2.5 miles wide.
At least 90 agencies, including fire departments, EMS agencies and the Air National Guard, responded to the flames that broke out in Center Moriches, East Moriches, Eastport and Westhampton.
On Sunday, the Rocky Point Fire Department was using an old World War II “deuce and a half” military cargo vehicle as a fire truck in the Pine Barrens to locate and extinguish hot spots.
Six firefighters from the North Shore Beach Black Sheep Squadron rode aboard the cargo truck and sprayed water into trees and on smaller sparks throughout the wooded area to ensure any hot spots were extinguished.
The fires shuttered the major route to the Hamptons and forced some residents to evacuate Saturday, authorities said.
Romain is set to hold a press conference on the fires at 11:30 a.m. Sunday.
