episode_narrativeA notable wildfire spread to more than 300 acres along the Zapata/Webb County line during the late morning and into the afternoon. The fire was likely driven by sustained winds between 20 and 25 mph, with frequent gusts above 30 mph. Low humidity, near or below 15 percent, may have contributed to favorably low fuel moisture.
event_narrativeA fire quickly spread to 400 acres at the Vela Martinez Ranch along the Zapata/Webb County line, driven by sustained southeast winds 20 to 25 mph with gusts of 30 mph or more, combined with falling humidity values below 30 percent, and perhaps down to 25 percent. Slowly diminishing winds late in the day, as well as ample help from local fire departments and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, helped contain the blaze.
