Cooler temps and calmer winds Saturday gave crews a crucial window to push containment south of Turtle Buttes and along the St. Charles River. Governor Jared Polis has declared a state of emergency, with National Guard support and 16-hour shifts for firefighters—now even getting hot meals and rest. Sunday’s forecast brings similar conditions but a risk of dry thunderstorms. A major support hub at CSU-Pueblo is feeding, fueling, and showering crews. While progress is encouraging, officials warn full control could take weeks, and the fire’s footprint will remain large for the foreseeable future.
