Hi Neighbors,

Keep an eye on the fire in Hemet. WatchDuty.org has a good app. The winds yesterday were erratic and this is the type of fire that can turn toward us. It has happened before.

Dawn-

That’s a pretty good app! Lots of useful information there- thanks for the share…

Doesn’t seem that the Fairview fire is likely to threaten Idyllwild, but Anza is probably very nervous right now.

Hi Neighbors, 

The “captains” of the Pinecrest Neighborhood Watch group received a phone call from someone requesting information about the fire. 

The best way to stay informed is to download the WatchDuty app and turn on notifications. Fairview Fire 

https://share.watchduty.org/incident/1255

The fire is at approximately 19,000 acres and still 5% contained. The road to Hemet (74) is closed just before Valle Vista. We are not on evac watch or order at this time. Winds are predicted to blow away from us with speeds in the teens and higher this afternoon. 

Personally, I’m a bit apprehensive of the winds that will accompany the approaching storm and yet we obviously welcome the high potential for rain.  

Please download the app or go to that website frequently for updates. You can also follow CalFire updates on Facebook and Twitter. There is also a camera at Keenwild that you can look at here: https://www.alertwildfire.org/region/inlandempire/?camera=Axis-Idyllwild1&v=7a7f1b9
