Current Situation:  Helicopters were able to briefly drop water from buckets on hot areas of the Frog Fire yesterday, until wind gusts grew too strong.  The firefighters still assigned to the fire watched from a safe vantage point and saw no significant increase in fire activity.  Today they will work along the northern edge of the fire, where the fire is still uncontained.  With more favorable weather conditions, they expect to have more helicopter support as they work.

Evacuations:  There are currently no evacuations related to the Frog Fire.
