The fire is burning in the Medicine Bow National Forest, about 50 miles west of Laramie. Dry and windy conditions, with the existing Red Flag Warning will elevate the chance for spread.

— Medicine Bow-Routt NFs & Thunder Basin NG (@FS_MBRTB) September 18, 2020 High probability for fire growth in this area today and Saturday with Red Flag Warning today and Fire Weather Watch for Saturday. Campers and other outdoor enthusiasts should leave the area as this is rugged terrain with plenty of available fuels to burn. #wywx https://t.co/eSGcUFcKrj
