Fire behavior is active, especially in canyon areas where heat and terrain work together to accelerate fire movement. The fire is spreading quickly in some areas ("running") and is producing embers that travel ahead of the main fire and start new fires ("spotting"). These conditions can make control efforts more difficult, as the fire may move in unpredictable ways or cross containment lines. Periods of intense burning, where trees or groups of trees ignite all at once ("torching"), have also been observed.
