CURRENT SITUATION
Today, fire crews will continue to patrol the perimeter looking for any remaining hotspots. Firefighters will continue to fall hazard trees along roadways within the burned area and continue with suppression repair. Intense heat is expected again today but temperatures should begin to decrease over the next few days. Smoke production will decrease as fire activity declines, improving overall air quality.
