Smith River Complex
Publication Type: News 09/02/2023
Special Statement
Smoke and fog can reduce visibility on roadways. Reduce your speed and use caution when visibility is impacted.
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, light smoke will be broadly transported toward the east under west wind directions. Yesterday's precipitation and cooler temperatures suppressed smoke generation and greatly improved air quality in the forecast area. On Sunday, air quality will remain GOOD in much of the forecast area. Early next week, southwest winds will return some smoke from the Smith River Complex back into the forecast area. While National smoke models are predicting much improvement in smoke dispersion on Sunday and Monday, smoke 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.
