Westridge Fire
As of 1pm, a helo recon reports #WestridgeFire at 480 acres w/decrease in acreage due to more accurate mapping. Due to inaccessibility on S. side, aircraft acts as eyes in the sky. Some increase in activity, but crews making progress w/suppression. #AZFire #AZForestry #Tortolitas pic.twitter.com/m4hp8PAbDb
