LNU Complex Fire 8/24/20
Evacuation Order reduced to Evacuation Warning on Soda Canyon Road
Last night's Red Flag Warning, at least on Soda Canyon Road, proved to be anticlimactic (and anticlimatic?). A couple of flashes in the far southwest early in the evening. No wind gusts, perfectly calm morning. Much better to be prepared than not, however. More fires will come.
The LNU Complex fire around Atlas Peak seems almost completely contained, but a change in the winds could reignite it at any time. Despite the benign look of the ridge during the day, four days after the passage of the fire, small fires, visible through the night, still burn in the trunks of trees.
