Good morning, Flagstaff.

A fire broke out at a 100 by 100 log slash pile behind the Restoration Forest Products building in Bellemont at 5:15 a.m. today — firefighters from Camp Navajo, Flagstaff FD, and Ponderosa Fire are containing the blaze while smoke may affect visibility on Interstate 40 and Historic Route 66 — and officials report no damage to the building with little risk to the nearby forest or community.

Summit FD and USFS responded to reports of a wildland fire along eastbound I-40 near Milepost 215 today — initial crews found a small fire smoldering in brush, and later CCSO confirmed at least four fires along the railroad tracks.

BNSF halted a train after officials reported that a petroleum car may have sparked the fires — responders then focused on protecting structures in Velvet Valley.

City officials said Highway 89 on the east side has been restricted to one lane in each direction since May 27 and will remain so until May 30 — drivers should expect delays.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time for travel during the lane restrictions.

Flagstaff is named one of the top 25 most underrated US travel destinations by U.S. News and World Report because it has hundreds of local restaurants and bars—plus it sits in the largest ponderosa pine forest and leads to national parks like the Grand Canyon.

The NAU Women’s Basketball team announced its first two offseason transfers over Memorial Day weekend—graduate guard Simone Morris from Robert Morris University and guard/forward Valentina Saric from Jacksonville State.

Morris played in four games last season while Saric, now in her third college team, played as a true freshman at Morehead State.
