Firefighters reinforced and built out containment lines surrounding the fire, while helicopters continued to dump buckets of water on hot spots.

Firefighters will remain at the scene throughout the night and will continue to monitor, mop up, and address interior hot spots tomorrow.
For the safety of yourself and the firefighters, please avoid the area as there will be additional fire traffic.
