From this morning’s SWA GACC sitrep report:

27807 acres (Previous Acres: 26460) - Short Grass (1 foot).
SUPPRESSION strategy (100% Full Suppression). Currently 15% contained - anticipating containment 07/15/21.
Active fire behavior (Wind Driven Runs). Projected Activity: The potential of thunderstorm passages in the area will increase fire behavior as there are no changes in the current weather pattern of high temps and low relative humidity. Wind directions are becoming more variable with strong outflows from thunderstorm passage.
Structures Threatened: 56; Damaged: None; Destroyed: None
Resources Assigned: 2 (Fixed Wing-Air Tactical); 3 (Helicopter-Type 1); 1 (Helicopter-Type 2); 1 (Helicopter-Type 3); 3 (Crew-Camp); ); 1 (Crew-Type 2); 1 (Crew-Type 2IA); 5 (Dozer); 13 (Engine-Type 3); );
Critical Resource Needs: In priority order: Retain all assigned rotor-wing aircraft to support all ground resources; Type 1 IHC (1) - 3 Type 1 or Type 2 IA crews - TFLD (1) - HEQB (2); Air tanker support for ground resources; SECM (1) - SEC2(1) - BCMG (2); DMOB (1) - GISS (1)…
IR Flight: 6/18/21-2202; IR Acres: 28802; Growth: 995 acres.
