Cooler Weather Calming Williams Mine Fire

Cooler weather has helped calm the Williams Mine Fire northwest of Trout Lake.  Northwest Complex Incident Management Team 13 Fire Behavior Analyst Dean Warner says moisture over the weekend has kept the fire at bay, and helped with efforts in the southern portion of the fire.  Containment for the fire increased slightly to 13%, while the acreage was also upped to 11,755.  Incident managers expect the containment percentage to continue climbing at a steady rate over the coming week as firefighters strengthen perimeter security along the fire’s edge.
