The NCAR Fire in Boulder has grown to around 200 acres and is at 21% containment. The evacuation area has shrunk to include less than 700 homes
Late Saturday night, the evacuation zone was updated with an outer perimeter given the all-clear to go home. The map below shows the current evacuation status. Those whose homes are in the green section can return home. However, if the route to their homes is in the red section, they will not be allowed back just yet.
The evacuation area included parts of south Boulder downhill from the NCAR facility and the southwestern area near Table Mesa. Officials with the University of Colorado Boulder said they evacuated people from their south campus as well. The East Boulder Community Center, 5660 Sioux Drive, is serving as an evacuation point. Evacuees are being invited to go there for more information and resources. Household pets are welcome.
Officials said Sunday they are optimistic calmer winds will help firefighters with containment. Winds are expected to shift to the west and northwest but will be more manageable as far as gusts.
