 Lazy Fire

October 5, 2022 Daily Update

Acres: 1,800
Containment: 100%
Start Date: September 29, 2022

Today crews spent a final day patrolling and searching for any heat along the lines. After patrolling the area all day yesterday and today without identifying any hot areas along the fire perimeter, fire managers have pushed containment to 100% and have handed this fire back to the local volunteer fire departments. All Texas A&M Forest Service resources have now returned to their local units and are standing by, waiting for the next call for assistance. 
 
Members of the public can expect to continue seeing plumes rise from the area of the Lazy Fire as hot areas inside the fire burn themselves out. Another common site might be dust devils formed by winds picking up exposed ash and dirt from the burned area and forming a similar looking plumes. If you see something rise from inside the burned area fire departments do not need to be informed, however if you see something rising from a different area outside of the Lazy Fire perimeter please call your local fire department.
