Firefighters hoping for rain
(2007-08-22)
(wnmu) - Firefighters are looking for rain to help fight the 28.5-square-mile Sleeper Lake Fire in Luce County. Rain is possible each day through Friday, and an aerial tanker from Minnesota has been dumping water on the blaze, as well. Crews are mopping up portions of the fire, which picked up Monday as winds gusted up to 25 miles per hour. The fire is about 67 percent contained, and 223 people are working to bring it under control.
