Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeIn late July, there were many days of gusty winds and record heat that brought elevated fire spread, especially to the Columbia Basin and Okanogan Valley. Three new wildfires were ignited between July 27-30th: Anglin, Green, and Coulee Meadows. They all quickly grew due to high temperatures, winds, and low relative humidity. The combined three wildfires destroyed over 4000 acres of land and three buildings. No human lives were lost or injured. The wildfires were contained within a few days and during the first week of August. Coulee Meadows was the last, fully contained on August 5th.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeThe Anglin Fire, 8 miles east of Tonasket, started on July 27th by human causes and burned a total 1,992 acres of timber before contained on August 1. Three structures were destroyed: one human residence and two out buildings. The cost of the firefighting resources required to contain the fire was calculated at 1.8 million dollars.
