Pictures of Invasive Lemongrass-stimulated Fires in Antigua

On the SIRMM Facebook page, Ruleta Camacho posted these scary photos of the massive fires that swept through much of the middle ground areas of the Body Ponds watershed in Antigua. Brian Cooper and Kevel Lindsay cited the extensive lemongrass fields in this area in our watershed characterization; sad to see the risk realized.
