Fire activity has been greatly reduced due to the moisture from Tropical Storm Kay. Deep-seated heat is still present in the dense old-growth brush fields, and stump holes. Fine flashy fuels will not sustain fire or ignition.

 Situation Summary: Winds will increase from the east causing any unsecured line to become active, especially in those on the western perimeter. Ember cast will dramatically increase as the strong 40+ mph winds enter the area. Long range spotting over a mile will be possible with Probability of Ignition at 85%. Thunderstorms with LAL 3, and heavy rain will be possible during the period. Fire activity will decrease as the winds subside, and rain scattered thunderstorms continue. LAL 3. Possibility rain totals of 1-1.5" by Sunday night. ERC levels will retreat rapidly from the 90th percentile.

 Fairview Fire releases new Forest Closure Order

IDYLLWILD, Calif.  October 2, 2022 – For public safety forest lands in the Fairview Fire area have been closed. The order states Forest Roads 5S15 (Rouse Ridge), and 6S22 (Cahuilla Mountain) have been closed to the public as well as the Alessandro and Hixon OHV routes. 

On September 5, 2022, a wildfire ignited near the San Bernardino National Forest on private lands in the area of Fairview Avenue and Bautista Canyon Road.  This fast-moving fire, named the Fairview Fire,  burned onto the San Bernardino National Forest.  The fire moved south and east into Bautista Canyon and Red Mountain, and into the South Fork of the San Jacinto River Wilderness.  

Forest Order # 05-12-55-22-12 is in effect through January 24, 2023.  Law Enforcement officers will be on patrol and stationed at various road closure points around the fire to ensure the safety of public and forest personnel. 

Updated information is available at InciWeb: https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/8402/ and San Bernardino National Forest’s social media.      

Situation Summary: The fire will continue to spread in all areas due to shifting winds ahead of Hurricane Kay’s arrival. The fire will have very high potential to move to the west due to the strong 40+mph east winds and possible extreme down slope winds coming off of the surrounding 10,000' peaks. Fire activity could be moderated in the evening when heavy rains come from the thunderstorms. This will however also bring lightning to the area.

Situation Summary:

Active fire behavior occurred in the east, south, and north portions of the incident. East winds at sundown pushed the fire to the west. As the winds subsided, the eastern portions of the incident continued to spread due to the complex terrain.

Fire will become active with primary movement to the east due to the west winds. Steep drainages will aid the spread with the up canyon/up slope winds and heavy fuels.
