COUESAZ Report post Posted September 1, 2009 It is raining good here in Mesa right now. Storms in the high country sure are nice to see and be in but they sure can play heck on things. I hope it works in the favor of those Men and Ladies fighting it tonight they need a bit of a break. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JHAM357 Report post Posted September 1, 2009 the rains help put the fire into smoldering mode. about 770 acres with 450 FF on scene. if its rains tonight lots of resources going to be released. i wouldnt worry too much about winds heading south. might be bad for the east and west heads but seems like the north head is biggest and a north wind would slow it down. just an outside observation though havent actually seen much of the fire but my dad lives up in east verde estates and as fast as that thing is moving i would think they would be on alert but again im not actually there.
