Rain Helps Firefighters Contain Northern Rockies Fires
Rain slows wildfires across the Northern Rockies easing firefighting efforts. In Montana an 81,000 acre blaze near Townsend benefits from showers reducing fire activity and improving access for crews. Wyoming reports freezing temps allowing crews to be released or reassigned. Idaho’s 24 major fires also slow with the largest 200,000 acre fire near Salmon showing no growth since Thursday.
