Amid weather change, firefighters express optimism about Station fire

Increasing humidity and slightly cooling temperatures this morning
brought the first signs of hopefulness from firefighters battling the
Station fire.

"I'm feeling a lot more optimistic today than I did yesterday," said
U.S. Forest Service Incident Cmdr. Mike Dietrich.

Although officially the fire is still at 5% containment, Dietrich said
authorities will reassess the containment percentage today, and he said
he expected the number to go up substantially.
