Lower North Fork Fire Update 3/28/12 0750:
Containment around the Lower North Fork Fire remains at 15%.
As of 6:00 AM this morning the Incident Command has transitioned to the Great Basin Type 1 Incident Management Team (IMT). The Jefferson County Type 3 will continue to work with the Type 1 team.
Today firefighters will be working to gain further containment around the fire while also suppressing the spot fires inside the perimeter.
The two Heavy Air Tankers have been redeployed to fight another fire in South Dakota. The Colorado Air National Guard will continue to use four Blackhawks to dump water on the fire.
The Jefferson County Sheriff’s office will continue to escort homeowners, whose structures we have confirmed were damaged by the fire, into the fire perimeter throughout the day.
Three citizen briefings are scheduled for today at the West Jefferson Middle School. The times are 9:00 AM, 1:00 PM, and 5:00 PM.

Dan Springer in a report on Fox News said that "officials hope to lift some of the fire evacuation orders later today".
Was this from the 9 a.m. scheduled citizen briefing at West Jeff Middle School?
Thanks

Nothing about potential evac return times at the 9 AM. Did mention that they hope to have power back to most people by end of day. Not sure where he's getting his info from but at the briefing they did not want to give any estimate for fear that they would then be held to it. I for one can understand why they're doing it.
So wonder where he is getting his information? I was so surprised to hear it. I kept checking the Jeffco Emerg Updates but nothing there. And uggghhh the winds are kicking up over here.
Also concerned about this weekend's weather.
