DURANGO, Colo. — Residents of a mobile park west of Durango were put under a pre-evacuation notice Tuesday afternoon after reports of a small fire sparked concerns among fire officials that it could spread quickly due to strong winds in the area.
Though reportedly small in size, “high winds give the fire a high potential to spread quickly,” a La Plata County spokesperson said in an email. A wind advisory remains in effect for parts of southwestern Colorado, including Cortez, Dove Creek, Mancos, Durango, Bayfield, Ignacio, and Pagosa Springs through 9 p.m. Monday due to westerly winds between 25 to 35 mph that could bring gusts up to 55 mph, according to National Weather Service officials in Grand Junction.
