Forsythe II Prescribed Burn Afternoon Update 05-07-2024

Forsythe II Prescribed Burn
Publication Type: Announcement - 05/07/2024 - 16:30

Fire managers have determined that conditions will not be suitable for prescribed fire ignitions tomorrow, Wednesday, May 8, at the Forsythe II Prescribed Burn. Fire management professionals will continue to monitor for another possible ignition window after this incoming weather system, which unexpectedly dropped snow on the burn area this afternoon.

As mentioned in our update sent out this morning, the intricate nature of prescribed fire requires significant planning and the alignment of multiple factors. Unfortunately, the weather conditions and unexpected snow means that we would not be able to meet the objectives of the prescribed fire burn plan for tomorrow. 

We have added a video to the videos tab here on InciWeb with this information update from Fire Prevention Technician Katie Caulfield.
