Wildfire Status:

The Greer Fire, which ignited around 11 AM on May 13, 2025, in Greer, Arizona, has significantly progressed since its start. Currently, the fire has burned approximately 20,308 acres and is reported as fully contained, with 100% of its perimeter secured. The fire has been primarily wind-driven, moving east/northeast along ridges through grass and pinyon-juniper forests. The cause of the fire remains under investigation, and as of May 26, about 50 personnel are still engaged in monitoring and suppression activities, focusing on patrols around structures and the fire's perimeter.

Fire management teams have made substantial headway in suppression efforts, with extensive repair work completed and minimal fire activity noted, primarily limited to isolated smoldering. The forecast for the next few days indicates no anticipated perimeter growth, and smoke production is expected to remain minimal. Fire crews have transitioned to day shifts only, reflecting the reduced threat level.

Weather conditions have contributed positively to firefighting efforts, with recent moisture levels in the vegetation around 80% foliar moisture, which has helped limit fire spread. The incident command for the fire has transitioned to a local type 4 incident commander as of May 26. Authorities have implemented various safety measures, including evacuation maps for residents and a forest service closure order to ensure public safety in affected areas. Overall, the situation appears to be stabilizing, with ongoing monitoring and repair work to mitigate any potential flare-ups.
