Zones J & K downgraded

Effective immediately Zones J & K has been downgraded from evacuation order to Evacuation WARNING. This change is weather dependent and could be moved back to an order if changes in the weather cause changes in fire behavior or growth. 
PLEASE NOTE: Tourist traffic is discouraged due to heavy fire traffic and roadside hazards.
All other zone’s status remains unchanged. 
As a reminder an “Evacuation WARNING” (i.e. sometimes used interchangeably with the term “Advisory”) means those in a specific area/zone should be prepared to evacuate at any time. You do not need to leave your home at this time but please be alert and prepared to leave if an evacuation order is called.

An “Evacuation ORDER” means those in a specific area/zone should leave immediately.

If you feel that your life is in danger, do not wait for and order.
