Final Daily Update for the Stayman Fire Unless Fire Activity Changes

CURRENT SITUATION and TODAY’S ACTIVITIES:  Firefighters successfully lined the fire with retardant, dozer lines, and hand line. Yesterday they worked to patrol, mop up, and secure those lines. Much of the fire is now contained and today firefighters are focused on mopping up and securing the northern edge. When crews mop up a fire, they stir water in to burnt areas along the edge of the fire using shovels and sometimes their gloved hands, working to extinguish any remaining heat. Aided by the cooler temperatures and rainfall expected today, firefighters anticipate completing remaining mop up. Crews will continue to patrol the area and check for any heat. Fire activity has decreased significantly, and as containment objectives are met, resources will be released from the incident and available for initial attack in the area.

WEATHER: A low-pressure system is moving into the area today but carrying a high probability of rain. It will bring light showers in the late morning and rainfall will increase in the afternoon. Precipitation is expected to sporadically fall through Saturday at noon.

EVACUATIONS:  Evacuation orders are in place for the Stayman Fire. For current evacuation information, please contact Chelan County Emergency Management (facebook.com/CCSOEM) or view the Chelan County Emergency Incidents Map: Chelan Co Emergency Incidents App (arcgis.com).
