Yesterday, minimal smoke was visible from Fillmore due to the cloud cover and moisture in the area. Monsoonal moisture will remain in place through Tuesday, resulting in scattered showers and thunderstorms each afternoon/evening. A drying and slight warming trend will develop late Tuesday through Thursday.

 Today, firefighters will continue to secure and mop-up along the control lines in the area of the burnout operations to prevent any potential flare ups or spots that could threaten the line. Successfully securing this line will minimize the potential for future fire spread to the north into the North Fork of Chalk Creek drainage, and west towards the community. Firefighters will also continue to work along the fire edge to address any potential threats and minimize fire growth.
