EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) - The Blue Front Fire burning near Ruidoso has not grown for the sixth day straight and it is now 90 percent contained, according to an update released on Thursday, Nov. 7 by the U.S. Forest Service. The Forest Service said the fire, which is burning 9 miles northwest of Ruidoso in the Blue 2 Fire footprint from last summer, remains at 323 acres. "A USFS engine remains assigned to the fire and will assess the conditions on the ground. Their task is to detect remaining heat that could be caused by smoldering fuels. An approaching weather system is forecasted to bring in snow and rain. This moisture will minimize any observed fire behavior. These improving conditions have allowed for containment to be raised to 90%," according to the Forest Service.  The Forest Service said weather forecast calls for colder temperatures accompanied by rain and snow throughout the day, which includes the general area of the fire.
