LINCOLN COUNTY, N.M. (KRQE) – The Lincoln National Forest in southern New Mexico has already raised its fire danger. The “moderate” ranking means accidental fires are possible but the numbers typically remain low and most wood fires would likely spread slowly. Grass fires could burn more quickly on windy days.
