As of the last update, the fire was over 67,000 acres and nearly 15% contained. The Division of Forestry said a Type 2 Incident Management Team from Washington state will be taking over the Funny River fire area Saturday, May 24. 374 personnel are on the ground assigned to fight the fire, with an expected increase to more than 500 personnel over the weekend. We recently spoke with Brad Nelson of Borough Emergency Management Services who said there has been no updates around 5pm and they have crews working hard on the lines of the fire that are closest to neighborhoods and residences. He said that they are working with the air support and continue to prepare structural protections should it reach the Pollard Subdivision. radiokenai.net/friday-evening-wildfire-update-crews-continue-preparation-for-closest-lines/
