Middle Fork Complex Daily UpdateSeptember 20, 2024
Fire activity is expected to remain minimal today throughout all fires as high humidity and cooler temperatures remain. A warm, drying trend is expected this weekend and into next week. Firefighters continue to work diligently as they strengthen control lines to combat drier weather. Throughout all fires, larger fuels and needle cast from fire weakened trees will continue to be consumed, producing smoldering, and creeping within fire perimeters. Needle cast is when fire weakened trees drop their needles, creating a duff layer on the ground.
