Fire Concerns Linger
A Fire Threat is in place across the Southwest and Four Corners as intense heat, dry and windy conditions linger across the region. Wind at times will reach up to 30 miles per hour, with higher gusts possible, which would allow any fires that develop to expand and spread very quickly.
