Smith River Complex
Publication Type: News 09/01/2023
Special Statement
AIR QUALITY ADVISORY for central and southern Oregon, including Josephine and Douglas counties, ending by midday Friday. More information at Oregon Smoke.
Fire
In addition to Smith River Complex, multiple active fires across Oregon are contributing smoke to the forecast area, including: Chilcoot Fire, Ridge Fire, Salmon Fire, Dinner Fire, Lookout Fire, Tyee Ridge Complex, Bedrock Fire, Flat Fire, and Brice Creek Fire. For more information, see InciWeb.
Smoke
For this morning, smoke will be broadly transported toward the southwest under northeast wind directions. Precipitation and cooler temperatures are anticipated beginning this afternoon through Saturday, which should suppress smoke generation and greatly improve air quality in the forecast area. On Sunday, winds from the southwest will bring smoke back into much of the forecast area from the Smith River Complex. While National smoke models are predicting much improvement in smoke dispersion on Friday and Saturday, conditions can change at any time. If you see smoke and smell smoke, you're breathing smoke. For near real-time air quality information, see the Fire and Smoke Map.
