Barometer 29.8, temperature 60 degrees. Ceiling 6000' overcast with thick smoke, visibility 4 miles with thick smoke. Slight north wind.
Iniakuk fire update: The fire finally topped out on the ridge and crossed over in several places. We watched the trees catch, explode, then the wind changed and the fire has cooled somewhat overnight. I am still seeing flareups. Whether the fire will slowly consume the east ridge remains to be seen. The scooper aircraft were on another fire last night. They might make it here today if they can see to fly.
