Frijoles Fire Rages Through Northern New Mexico | Santa Fe News

A wildfire raging through northern New Mexico is now charring over 9,300 acres with just 12% containment—650 firefighters are battling it, building fire lines to shield the town of Cundiyo and deploying engines to protect homes. Smoke has degraded air quality in nearby towns like Nambe and Espanola, prompting health alerts and a “Go” evacuation order for Cundiyo’s Camino de Canon area. Officials are coordinating with tribes and agencies, with a community update meeting set for Tuesday, August 18th in Santa Fe. Meanwhile, part of the Santa Fe National Forest and Highway 503 are temporarily closed for safety. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
