FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) - Decreased fire danger resulting from recent rain and increased humidity is allowing three national forests in Arizona to lift all or some of their fire restrictions and area closures. Coconino National Forest said all of its fire restrictions and area closures are being lifted Wednesday while Kaibab National Forest said its fire restrictions in the forest's Williams and Tusayan ranger districts south of the Grand Canyon will be lifted.
