Size & Completion: 35,725 acres. Completion has increased to 25%.
Update: Fire behavior remains active with short runs and some uphill runs, with increased activity in the afternoon. Some areas of the fire received precipitation last night.
Fire Outlook: There is an increased chance of thunderstorms and precipitation today. A possibility of thunderstorms implies potentially gusty and erratic winds. Gusty and erratic winds may contribute to fire spread. Firefighters are hopeful that lower temperatures, higher relative humidities, and more precipitation will decrease fire activity.
Objective: Today crews will continue point protection strategies and act as necessary to protect values at risk. All values at risk are not publicly accessible and are not a threat to public health or safety if impacted.
