Fires across Colorado

[Sawin]

I'm seeing rain and snow on the radar over fire areas.

God, please let it snow and rain on these fires, and put them all out!
I just looked at the weather forecast map too, and it’s looking promising most of tomorrow, starting early morning hours overnight tonight.
Bring on the precipitation. Whatever form we get, it’s welcome!

Hopefully this snow is heavy enough to put the fire out.

Hopefully LOTS of snow.
Wet wood doesn't catch fire as easily as the tinderbox they have had to deal with.

The litter on the forest floor also gets covered. Slows things down a bit.

They have already stated that this will not likely put them out.

Looks like Estes Park has at least 6 inches of snow on the ground.

I agree it?s not likely given the surprise snow we had in September didn?t hamper the Cameron Peak Fire all that much, but every little bit helps and let?s the firefighters get that much further along in building defensible spaces where needed. I?d bet at the very least the snow through Monday will be influential in significantly improving the containment.

And getting them some well deserved rest.

Sunday 5:45 just off the peak to peak highway and Switzerland trail.

Awesome! This should definitely help with some containment and give the crews some needed rest
