Lightning started fire in Sidley Area

Quick response from locals, then AMFD, and then some BCWS crew who were working the fire near Conkle Lake.

Jennifer from "Boundary Fire Watch" had circulated the lighting strike map to neighbours, resulting in a quick spotting of the fire, and quick response.

The lighting map showed activity toward Camp McKinney. I took a drive down there after the storm. It is wet and green down there, and it appears that there was at least as much fresh moisture there, as there was here.
