Flood Summary
Heavy Rain and Flooding in Kansas, Oklahoma and Utah
Thunderstorms producing torrential rains caused several small creeks and
streams in Kansas and Oklahoma to flood. The rains also penetrated the Texas
Panhandle. In Salt Lake City, heavy rains also produced flooding, with some
roads there having as much as 1 feet of water on them. The heavier rains
from earlier this week in the Upper Midwest have resulted in continued river
flood warnings along several rivers in Ohio, northern Illinois and southern
Wisconsin. On Friday, rain from showers and thunderstorms will fall from
Texas to the nation's midsection. The heaviest rains should fall in the
Midwest.

INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SITUATION REPORT
FRIDAY, MAY 26, 2000 - 0530 MDT
NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS LEVEL III
CURRENT SITUATION:
New large fires were reported in the Southwest, Southern California, and
Southern Areas. A Type I Incident Management Team was mobilized in the
Southern Area. The National Interagency Coordination Center processed
orders for helicopters, airtankers, an air attack aircraft, radio
equipment, caterers, a shower unit, meteorological equipment, crews, and
miscellaneous overhead. Very high to extreme fire indices were reported
in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, California, Colorado, and Kansas.
SOUTHWEST AREA LARGE FIRES:
PUMPKIN, Kaibab National Forest. A Type II Incident Management Team
(Anderson) is assigned. The fire, which is 25 miles northeast of
Flagstaff, AZ has burned into the Kendrick Wilderness Area. Containment
is hampered by low fuel moistures, low relative humidity, steep
topography, and strong winds. Threats are to nearby private structures
and endangered species habitat.
MANGUM, Kaibab National Forest. This lightning caused fire is located ten
miles southwest of Jacob Lake, AZ. Steep terrain and low relative
humidities are hampering containment efforts.
OAK POINT, Kaibab National Forest. A Type II Incident Management Team
(Joki) has been ordered. The fire is seven miles southwest of Jacob Lake,
AZ. The cause of the fire is lightning.
CLOVER, Coconino National Forest. The fire is burning in ponderosa pine
55 miles southeast of Flagstaff, AZ. Erratic winds, low relative
humidities, and long range spotting are hindering containment efforts.
Crews are improving existing firelines and dropping hazardous snags.
CERRO GRANDE, Bandelier National Park. An Area Command Team (Edrington)
and a Type II Incident Management Team (Praytor) are assigned to
coordinate mop up and rehabilitation efforts.
SOUTHERN AREA LARGE FIRES:
KINSEY 2, Francis Marion and Sumter National Forests. A Type I Incident
Management Team (Melton) has been ordered. This complex of eight fires is
burning near Cordesville, SC in long needle pine and southern rough. Two
airtankers dropped retardant on the fire. Intense fire behavior and lack
of resources are hindering containment.
DM, Florida State Division of Forestry. The fire is burning in swampland
and heavy fuels south of Ocala in Sumpter County. Three airtankers and
one helicopter are providing air support. The fire was caused by
lightning.
CARLTON RESERVE, Florida State Division of Forestry. The fire is ten
miles northwest of Port Charlotte, FL. All crews have been released.
Florida Division of Forestry aircraft will continue to monitor the fire.
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AREA LARGE FIRES:
TAHQUITZ, San Bernardino National Forest. A Type II Incident Management
Team (Conklin) has been ordered. This fire is 16 miles east of Hemet, CA.
Current threats are to the San Jacinto Wilderness and State Park. The
remoteness of the area and heavy fuels are causing control problems.
