VIDEO: A wildfire is burning about 10 miles Southwest of Veneta, Oregon, near a region that experienced an east wind event, according to the Oregon Department of Forestry's Western Lane District.
Crews have been working to build containment lines and have done so around 75% of the fire, which remains an estimated 300 acres as of Monday morning.
"We have 75% of the fire line where we have physically dug a line in the dirt and created just a barrier between the fire and other vegetation where it can spread. The goal in that is to keep it at the size that it's at," said Natalie Weber, with the Oregon Department of Forestry.
Due to high humidity and cooler temperatures overnight Saturday, the fire drastically decreased around midnight, allowing firefighters to make progress in working to put out the flames.
