Fires kept small in Northeast Oregon District

Pendleton fire crews are responding to three fires in the Northeast Oregon District ignited by lightning this evening.  Two of the fires were single tree fires in Morrow County.  Fire fighters are hiking into the third fire in Umatilla County.

Reconnaissance flights covered the district today looking for holdover fires from yesterday's thunderstorms.  Thunderstorms continue to be in the forecast for the weekend.
