Valentine's Day
Publication Type: News -
Boyd, Texas - Crews worked over the night monitoring the fire to put out any heats that they found. Throughout the day today the crews will be monitoring the fire and driving the lines looking for heat sources. Last night dozers finished lining the fire and the local IC bumped containment to 90 percent. In addition with better mapping the total acreage burned has come out to 265 acres. At this time we can confirm that an abandoned structure was lost yesterday but 19 other structures were saved. With the expected high winds today local resources will be monitoring the fire throughout the day, and state resources will be standing by to assist as needed. There is a TFR still in place today and the area is closed to air traffic, including personal drones.
