- Fortunately, fire activity was minimal today and great progress was made
- It will probably be another day or two before we have the final count on acres burned but it is still believed to be around 1600 acres
- The Division of Forestry will be deploying strike teams tomorrow and through the weekend to address hot spots
- NCFR will provide supplemental tanker trucks to support operations through the remainder of the incident
- Roads have been reopened. However, NCSO will be patrolling through the evening. If the smoke settles back in and visibility is compromised then road closures will be reinstated as needed
