The Morrill Fire in Nebraska is estimated to have burned 330,000 acres. Fanned by wind gusts between 70-90mph yesterday. I don’t know the cause. I’m not going to speculate.

This fire is the source of the smoke across most of northern and northeast Colorado this morning.

According to followers I have on the ground, there are a handful of homes and farmsteads that have been lost. Don’t have an exact count.

This morning with calm winds, an aerial offensive attack by fire crews is being conducted in hopes of at least gaining some containment and establishing wet lines before winds increase again this afternoon.

The wind will be out of the west and northwest for most of us today gusting at times between 35-55mph.

The wind on Saturday ahead of the cold front won’t be any better. In fact, it’ll probably be stronger.

🚨 Successful Horse Rescue – Teamwork in Action

At 14:24 today, APFD was dispatched to an animal entrapment involving a horse that had fallen into a large ditch. On arrival, crews found the horse uninjured but unable to climb out on its own.

Despite sub‑20° temperatures and a windchill of 16°, APFD crews—alongside Eaton Fire Protection District, Windsor Severance Fire Rescue, Weld County Animal Control, and Banner Health Ambulance—worked tirelessly for over three hours to safely retrieve the horse.

Thanks to the persistence and coordination of all agencies, the horse was successfully rescued without injury and happily reunited with its owners.

👏 A huge thank‑you to our partner agencies and our dedicated crews for their professionalism, teamwork, and resilience in challenging conditions.
