Containment increased to 68%.

Today’s weather calls for continued cooling temperatures and lighter winds. This will help with ongoing mop up efforts and allow crews to continue their push deeper into the black areas around the fire perimeter.

Evacuation levels were reduced this morning. Evacuation levels are determined by the Klamath County Sheriff’s Office in conjunction with fire officials and agency administrators. Current evacuation areas and levels can be found at https://www.klamathcounty.org/300/Emergency-Management.
