Lightning Continues to Cause Small Wildfires Across The Klamath
Incident: Klamath National Forest Lightning Fires Wildfire
Of the fires identified so far, 15 are on the Happy Camp/Oak Knoll Ranger District, 11 are on the Scott-Salmon River Ranger District, and four on the Goosenest Ranger District.
None seem to be threatening homes or other structures at this time. Fire managers expect hold-over fires to become visible as the weather front pushes through the area and hotter, dryer conditions return.
