Wildfire Status:

The Greer Fire, which started on May 13, 2025, in Greer, Arizona, is currently reported to be fully contained, with 100% of its perimeter under control. The fire has burned approximately 20,308 acres, primarily through grass and pinyon-juniper vegetation. Although the cause of the fire remains under investigation, it was initially driven by strong winds pushing the flames east and northeast along ridges.

Fire response efforts have involved around 50 personnel who have been engaged in extensive suppression and repair work. The Southwest Complex Incident Management Team has transitioned the incident command to a local type 4 team to continue managing operations. Recent reports indicate minimal fire activity, characterized by isolated smoldering and no anticipated perimeter growth, with significant repair and rehabilitation work completed across various divisions.

Weather conditions have favored firefighting efforts, with high moisture levels in the foliage, which has reduced the risk of further fire spread. The outlook for the coming days suggests that fire activity will remain low, and the focus will shift to patrols around structures and ongoing repair work to ensure community safety. The estimated containment date is projected for May 27, 2025, as crews continue to monitor and secure the fire perimeter. Emergency evacuation resources, including an interactive map for residents, are available to assist those affected by the fire.
