Getting any Rain in the Blues!?

[E-Town Hunter]

Can anyone confirm or deny that we are getting any type of wet weather in the Blues right now? We need the wilderness opened back up pronto!!!

It is currently raining lightly in WW. Radar map indicates that hills are getting some as well.

Sprinkle is all so far.

Are you itching to have a camp fire at an abandoned dummy campsite ?

? Not sure what you mean.

Having troubles sleeping at night yet? When I had the tag I had to start taking Tylenol pm about now. Lol. I can't imagine the added stress of the closure. I'd probably go to my doc and ask for an induced coma until October 25 or so. Lol

Yes, its getting a little nerve racking. Thought for sure it would be open by now. Been following the fire activity from the first few days when it was 500 acres.  Now over 80,000 and continues to burn. Hearing reports that wildlife activity is still stable and present in there despite the fire just adds to the frustration that we can't get in there. I really needed some time to get in and scout.

I'm right with ya buddy. Was planning on scouting this weekend. But that's a no go.

Still hoping but starting to think I might be spending extra time chasing whitetails rather than trying to fill my E. Wenaha elk tag.

We got about 0.12" in town.  According to the weather service observations it looks like the mountains got about 0.20"

an update was released... still a lot of hot spots according to the infrared map they released.

Rained pretty good up there on Wed and into the night but was still pretty dry under the trees. We were in Tucannon up on top and prior to the rain, fires were still burning and lots of smoke. Tuesday night in the dark we could see fire up on Baldy. My guess is it will take quite a bit more rain to get it opened up. Fingers crossed for you guys as there is plenty of untouched country down in there that the fire never got close to.
