CAL FIRE San Mateo-Santa Cruz Unit June Live Fuel Moisture

CZU June LFM is posted at the National Fuel Moisture Database and summarized below.  A decline in fuel moisture was observed at all sampling locations, but levels are near average for this time of year.  The increase in old growth moisture at Corralitos was likely a sampling error.  This will be confirmed when the next sample is taken.
