The National Weather Service has issued an Excessive Heat Warning for La Paz County in Arizona today through July 5, 2024. Public cooling centers are available in some areas. Stay cool, stay hydrated, and stay informed.
The Coconino County Sheriff’s Office is working closely with the United States Forest Service Kaibab and Coconino National Forest Fire units on a wildfire located within the Navajo Army Depot Base in Bellemont, AZ.
At this time, zones 105 (A-1 Ranch), 106 (Bellemont North), 107 (Village Camp), 108 (Bellemont South) are being placed on a pre-evacuation SET Notice. Soggy Bottom Ranch and all residences off of Naval Observatory Road are also in SET Status. Sheriff’s Deputies and USFS Law Enforcement Officers are currently contacting campers and urging them to avoid the area.
This is a good reminder to everyone in Coconino County that we are in fire season and to always be in a READY Status, as it is impossible to know when your neighborhood will be affected.

The SET notice is for Zones #105, 106, 107, and 108.
