The fire continued to consume interior islands, pockets of unburned fuels, and heavy dead and down materials in the timber understory. Short range spotting continued to challenge containment lines.  

Better humidly recovery is expected tonight, which will aid fire suppression efforts. Monday, a cooling trend will bring more favorable temperatures, which may be accompanied by gusty winds.
