#BluebellFire, #Chautauqua, #Boulder. Evacuations ordered. #cofire #cowx #BoulderCounty #Colorado
Hate to see it. Just west of the NOAA Boulder campus by the Chautauqua trailheads.
Record low snow year in CO means this may be a busy year. Fine fuels are cured and flashy. Evacuations issued.

#Boulder, we have a fire south of Chautauqua, named #BluebellFire. Fire up your Watch Duty app. Low wind, but warm, so should be containable.
And we have an evac warning for SW Boulder.

#BlueBellFire in #Boulder, CO (near Chautauqua Park) currently burning amid extremely dry and near record-warm conditions (69F and 7% RH). Lack of strong winds right now thankfully a major mitigating factor. So far, mostly sfc fire plus occasional torching in confers. #COwx

Weather in the vicinity of the #BluebellFire in #Boulder: 66Β°F, 9% humidity, winds light from the east at <5MPH. Still going to burn hot but won't be a fast spreader.
#BluebellFire looks like Iβm in line to be among the first houses hit by this if it makes its way to to the SE but luckily not much of a breeze. Apparently itβs moving SW.
