“The fire has quieted down compared to yesterday,” says Hunse. “Yesterday we were looking at a rank three and today we are down to rank one to two. What we mean by that is a smouldering ground fire with some open flame.”
Hunse says they have 27 firefighters on site today, working with support staff and air support as needed.
