The Douglas Forest Protective Association located an additional two lightning-caused fires Monday afternoon, bringing the total number of lightning fires started by Sunday’s storm to six. The newly detected fires were located 11 miles northwest of Glendale and eight miles south of Elkton. Both were small and have been trailed and mopped up.
DFPA firefighters will continue to monitor the lightning-affected areas the next several days for any additional fires.
