Current Situation

Situation Summary

Most of the effort at the Shelly Fire is now on suppression repair.


The Kidder Creek and Babs Ridge areas still have isolated pockets of heat, which may produce smoke and poor visibility. Crews will address these areas as a high priority, and the fire is expected to remain within the current perimeter.

Drivers should continue to remain alert for fire personnel and heavy equipment on or near the roadways.

WEATHER:
Today will have low relative humidity, high temperatures, and gusty southwest winds up to 35 miles per hour.
