The Lard Fire started on the afternoon of October 22, 2204. Combined long term drought, high winds, and low relative humidity ahead of a cold front caused rapid growth on the fire. Firefighters and aircraft responded and actively began fire suppression efforts. There was a drop in acres because of more accurate mapping.
The fire is 100% contained
