SOUTH FORK FIRE, SALT FIRE EVENING UPDATE – JUNE 18, 2024
The South Fork Fire, discovered on June 17, 2024, has rapidly grown to
15,276 acres with 0% containment, causing the loss of approximately
1,400 structures and forcing the evacuation of around 8,000 people. It
is burning on Mescalero Tribal, US Forest Service land, and areas
around Ruidoso. Weather forecasts predict scattered showers and
thunderstorms. The Salt Fire, also active, covers 5,557 acres on
Mescalero Reservation. Both fires will be managed by a Complex
Incident Management Team starting June 19.
=====================
iirc structures losses at wildfires are usually 50% outbuildings and
50% primary blds - so maybe 700 homes have been lost
