| 05/26/09 15:43:45 | No | ||
| 09/04/08 15:38:08 | No | Last weekend's widespread precipitation has moderated the dead and down fuels. Sage grass is pretty much cured at all elevations and given warmer and dry conditions, will burn actively | |
| 08/27/08 19:49:27 | Yes | All | Updated to reflect critical fuels at all elevations |
| 08/27/08 19:48:06 | Yes | All | Updated to reflect critical fuels at all elevations |
| 08/25/08 13:59:00 | Yes | 8,000 | Fuels are considered critical below 8,500. On most aspects, Sage/grass below 8,000 feet is cured. |
| 08/21/08 17:11:37 | Yes | 8,000 | Fuels are considered critical below 8,500. On most aspects, Sage/grass below 8,000 feet are cured. |
| 08/13/08 08:52:56 | Yes | 8,000 | Scattered precipitation last weekend has slightly moderated dead and down fuels, but fuels are still considered critical below 8,500. On most aspects, Sage/grass below 8,000 feet are cured. |
| 08/04/08 09:41:27 | Yes | 8,500 | Dead and Down fuels are now considered critical with WIMS estimated moistures of 9-11. Sage/grass below 8,000 feet will be totally cured within another 3 -5 days |
| 07/30/08 13:26:56 | Yes | 8,500 | Dead and Down fuels are now considered critical with WIMS estimated moistures of 9-11. Sage/grass below 8,000 feet will be totally cured within another 3 -5 days |
| 07/28/08 15:44:54 | No | Fuels are steadily curing but have not yet reached Critical levels. Thousand hour fuels are also steadily dropping but field measured sites are holding well. | |
| 07/19/08 20:24:50 | No | Live fuels below 7,500 are rapidly curing.; ERCs continue a steep climb as we have had little or no precipation the past three weeks | |
| 07/16/08 10:31:44 | No | Snow is about gone below 10,000 feet. Live fuels are green; lower to mid elevation dead fuels continue to dry. | |
| 07/09/08 08:49:15 | No | Warm the past week, snowline is at about 9,500. Live fuels are green; lower elevation dead fuels are drying quickly | |
| 07/01/08 11:10:04 | No | Warm the past week, snowline is at about 9,500. Live fuels are green; lower elevation dead fuels are drying quickly | |
| 06/12/08 07:41:00 | No | Cool spring with delayed snowmelt, runoff and greenup at mid and upper elevations. Recent period has been wet. | |
| 09/20/07 08:37:41 | No | Average September, looking to potentiasl moisture over the weekend to begin elevating hevay fuel moistures, esp at elevation. | |
| 09/10/07 13:15:29 | No | Average September | |
| 09/02/07 08:37:07 | No | Fuels can be considered Not Critical for the zone, some locally heavy precip has occurred in areas moderating fuel moistures. Low elevation sage/grass and south slopes have fully cured and can be expected to carry fire well during favorable late season conditions. | |
| 08/25/07 15:07:15 | No | Most of the area received significant rains the past two weeks. This has moderated previous critical conditions and seen a rebound in the heavy fuels moisture levels. The south half of 416 has not received as much precipitation as the north half but is still below critical. | |
| 08/18/07 16:58:39 | No | Most of the are received significant rains the past two days, these rains have moderated the 1,000 fuels short term. Live fuels are cured, but given the widespread moisture overall fuels are not considered critical at for the short term. The south half of 416 has not received as much precipitation as the north half but is below critical | |
| 08/18/07 16:56:09 | No | Most of the are received significant rains the past two days, these rains have moderated the 1,000 fuels short term. Live fuels are cured, but given the widespread moisture overall fuels are not considered critical at this time. The south half of 416 has not received as much precipitation as the north half but is below critical | |
| 08/11/07 22:47:35 | Yes | 9,000 | Live fuels are completely cured. 1,000 fuels are quickly drying out from last weeks rains and are close to critical |
| 07/31/07 08:49:26 | Yes | 9,000 | Live fuels are cured at low elevations, with mid elevation fuels continuing to cure. Between July 24th and July 29th RAWS stations within the TDIC area recieved between 0.40 and 1.56 inches of rain. Short term the rain has moderated conditions, with 1,000 fuels estimated between 12-14. Because of the long term droung, the moderating effects are expected to be short term. |
| 07/26/07 10:49:53 | Yes | 9,500 | Live fuels are cured at low elevations, with mid elevation fuels curing rapidly.1,000 fuels estimated between 10-12 which is considered critical. Scattered rain showers have moderated fire potential short-term, but rain's effect will be short lived. |
| 07/18/07 11:18:22 | Yes | 9,500 | Live fuels are cured at low elevations, with mid elevation fuels curing rapidly.1,000 fuels estimated between 10-12 which is considered critical. Scattered rain showers have moderated fire potential short-term, but rain's effect will be short lived. |
| 07/10/07 11:47:12 | Yes | 9,000 | Most live fuels are in transition and with only low elevation south and west slopes close to curing, dead fuels including 1,000 fuels estimated between 11-13 which is considered critical |
| 07/02/07 10:56:05 | Yes | 9,000 | Most live fuels are in transition and with only low elevation south and west slopes close to curing, dead fuels including 1,000 fuels estimated between 11-13 which is considered critical |
| 06/25/07 11:17:48 | Yes | 9,000 | While live fuels are still in transition and will not burn, dead fuels including 1,000 fuels are dry with ERCs at the 90th percentile |
| 06/15/07 18:14:41 | No | Snow is pretty much off except at the highest elevations (above 9,500 Ft). Green-up has occurred at all elevations, 1,000 hour samples are a indicating we are couple weeks ahead of normal fire season | |

| 08/22/05 08:22:26 | No | Sage/grass cured below 7,500, recent precipatation has moderated dead and down fuels | |
| 08/08/05 09:18:15 | No | Sage/grass cured below 7,500, but overall fuels still not critical | |
| 07/20/05 15:48:21 | No | Still not critical, but could be a week away at lower elevations. Above 8,500 feet still pretty green | |
