Hi all,

 

Hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to share this article with everyone in case you have not seen it yet. Hopefully we will get much needed moisture soon.

 

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – The city of Albuquerque has officially closed its open space areas in the east mountains. Albuquerque Fire Rescue made the announcement on Tuesday citing the extreme fire danger and the proximity of these properties to the Cibola National Forest which is under a closure order because of fire danger.
