Despite high winds Saturday, the Iron fire in northeast Colorado experienced minimal growth and continues to burn on just over 7,300 acres.
The fire, located in Moffat County 18 miles northwest of Craig, sparked Friday morning and grew rapidly, reaching 6,500 acres in less than eight hours, according to the Moffat County Sheriff’s Office.
While officials said Saturday’s high winds could have fueled the fire, causing it to spread as fast as Friday, the increase in cloud cover and precipitation lessened fire behavior and allowed firefighters to increase containment, the release stated.According to Sunday’s update, 45 firefighters are currently on scene at the Iron fire, and they will remain there until the blaze is 100% contained.No evacuations have been ordered as of 5 p.m.
