Special Updates:   Great Basin Team #4 is also in command of the 82-acre Corral Fire. Located east of Atlanta, ID, the fire has not exhibited any growth or fire activity since Thursday, September 19. This fire will not be reported on daily unless significant activity occurs. 

Weather:  Today’s weather will be very similar to yesterday’s. Warmer and drier conditions continue until midweek when a slight chance for moisture and thunderstorms is forecast. Incident meteorologists will continue to monitor the incoming weather and provide firefighters with information on the likely impacts to the fire area. 

Current Situation:  More accurate mapping of the Frog Fire accounts for the additional growth on the northeast end of the fire. A crew was flown into the southern corner of the fire, above Little Boulder Creek, to begin working directly along the fire perimeter to extend existing containment line that stretches along the eastern edge of the burned area. In the northwest corner of the fire, where more fire activity has been observed over the weekend, helicopters dropped water to suppress flames and limit spread. Fire engines and crews remain in the valley to respond to any threats to private property. 

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