Wildland fire makes an evacuation happen
The two Boulder fires that are burning outside the Co. city are causing severe issues. Evacuation had to happen for about 1,700 residents. Those evacuating their homes have two choices of places to go to. The Boulder Judicial complex and Coors Event Center have opened up for these people. The Boulder Humane Society and Boulder County Fairgrounds are where animals of those being evacuated can be taken. They have also asked patients to stay out of Mapleton and Maxwell. This is where the Boulder Community hospital is at.
100 firefighters putting out Boulder fire
100 firefighters from seven different agencies were brought together to fight the two Boulder fires. The firefighters can be setting a "back burn" that will remove fuel for the wildland fires. Boulder is going to lose power for four or more hours as a result of the power getting shut off with the back burn. Fire retardant may be dropped across residences with air tankers too. At about 8:45 a.m. on Friday, both the fires were first reported.
Boulder fire ends up being hard to stop
We probably won't see the two Boulder fires gone anytime soon. This caused the National Weather Service to put out a warning. A red flag warning is in effect. This means that critical fire weather conditions could happen if you will find any kind of "gusty and erratic winds". There is also some concern coming from the Boulder County Health department. They are worried the Boulder fires could cause negative health effects because of the smoke and debris. It might only take a day or two to make the fire better if there is cooperation from the weather. The Boulder fire could end up lasting over a week if the strong winds continue.
