pwrguy Report post Posted July 5, 2020 Hopefully they regain control of that one. I would think that would be a threat to Pine/Strawberry if it got too big. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildwoody Report post Posted July 5, 2020 Over 500+ acres, no containment, type one team coming in tonight. Cutting fire break around pine. But no big deal right. Dam lightning. Prayers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PRDATR Report post Posted July 5, 2020 I'm in Pine and the neighbor just came over and said there will be 9 tankers coming in tomorrow morning. She said Pine and Strawberry are in the path. It was dead calm overnight and this morning. My son just left to go into Payson so we will see what the latest is when he comes back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WW as you may very well know the wind yesterday was out of the west and Payson was socked in. When we left Pine today at 11 I could only see one small plume of smoke that was maybe a couple of hundred feet high. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes sir, true but wind is picking up and the afternoons are when they get crazy and the plume rises, remember it was contained yesterday morning.. well see in a couple hrs.
