2025 Wildfire Season: Madre Wildfire (CA) July 9th Update


Direct link to July 8th evening report from KGET News

This post updates the post I made on July 4th on the Madre Wildfire that is still burning in the County of San Luis Obispo that is a couple hours north of Los Angeles. According to the latest update from the Madre Fire Inciweb site (11:23 PM PST on July 8th) containment was at 55 percent, up from 35 containment reported in the video I shared. Acreage burned is now at 80,610 acres, a very marginal increase from 80,603 acres reported in the video. Acreage burned increased significantly from acreage burned on July 4th of 52,920 acres. 

Cal Fire has a page devoted to the Madre Fire that may be found here. As I write in their early morning update for July 9th (5:30 AM PST) they are reporting 62 percent containment and acreage burned of 80,610 acres and some evacuation orders are still in effect.
