WEATHER CONDITION AT INCIDENT OR NEARBY STATIONS
...REMARKS...
Prior forecasts have reflected weather conditions on the fire. For
analysis we use Dry Fork RAWS for historic weather. Fire holding
operation through 08/20 will focus in Spronks Creek, north and
northeast of Crosho Lake. The precipitation and humidity Fri into Sat
has moderated fire behavior. We are seeking to monitor a transition
to burning conditions that may begin on Monday August 18 and continue
through August 20. Fuels and indices appear to be returning to record
dry conditions. No on-site weather inputs at present but digital
point forecast have proven accurate.
