August 26, 2009 6:15 am....CBS Channel 2 News reported 750 acres burned in the Morris Dam Fire East of Highway 39 in the Angeles National Forest, north of Azusa. 600 Firefighters combated the flames. Voluntary evacuations of the Williams campsite and trailer park in the canyon.
The air quality for particulate matter rated in the Unhealthful for Sensitive Groups (orange). Visually the air was grey and smelled of fire.
Any status on whether or not the road is open during the fire?
