Russell mountain Fire Update August 27, 2022
Russell Mountain Fire
Publication Type: News 08/27/2022
A low-pressure system moves into the area today and will remain throughout the weekend providing much cooler temperatures and higher humidity levels. Today will be partly cloudy with a chance of rain but breezy winds are a concern for the Panhandle after several days of lightning. The Eneas Peak and Trout Fire have gained little growth over the past 24 hours while the Russell Mountain increased by 34 acres. The Russell Mountain fire, the furthest fire from the valley, is wind and terrain driven. The winds from the west/southwest have pushed the fire further to the east and it is moving upslope in a draw. Firefighters continue to utilize a contain and confine management strategy which may include air support.
