The Great Basin Complex Incident Management Team 6 has assumed command of the Microwave Tower Fire west and southwest of Mosier.  The fire has seen moderate activity with intermittent single tree torching along with some flanking and smoldering creating a moderate amount of smoke.  The fire also saw growth back down the north slope, and with increased winds Wednesday, crews are ready to address increased fire behavior.  Crews are building a combination of dozer and hand line on the southern edge of the fire, along with working to improve roads, trails, and previously constructed contingency lines around the remainder of the fire.  Evacuation levels established on Monday night remain in place.  There is an estimate of 100 homes that are under Level 3 evacuations and 500 residences threatened in the Mosier area.  More accurate mapping has sized the fire at 704 acres, with no containment.  Cause of the fire remains under investigation.  The Mosier Senior Center is being used as a cooling center for the public where they can also charge devices.
