A brush fire broke out in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park on Friday night amid a stretch of historically dry weather, officials said.

Firefighters responded to the blaze burning in the rolling meadow known as the Nethermead in the middle of the popular greenspace, according to the FDNY.

The FDNY received the first call about the blaze at about 6:40 p.m. and smoke eaters were actively trying to extinguish the flames over an hour later.

The city has experienced weeks of bone-dry conditions. October saw the second longest rainless streak in the Big Apple’s recorded history, with only .81 inches of rain falling compared to an average of about 3.81 inches, officials have said.
