Fire crews are telling me that there is a helicopter on scene and they are telling me there is nothing they can do at this point but just let it burn. The good news is that there are not structures in the area.

We've got to take advantage of the cooler temperatures, try to get as much done as we can now before winds start to swirl up again.

You're going to be hard pressed to find an area that has temperatures cooler than normal.

It worked. The dirt stopped the fire from spreading.
