Smoke
Morning down-terrain surface winds will push smoke SW down the Snake River corridor then shift mid to late morning to a more W-NW direction as the day progresses. Yesterday saw the development of the new fire starts in Oregon SW of the Limepoint fire (Town Gulch Fire) and the Paddock Fire W of Weiser, of which both fires had significant effects on air quality yesterday in the Outlook area. These fires, in combination with established incidents (Telephone, Whiskey Mountain Falls, and Crazy Creek), will keep most communities in the MODERATE to USG today. Continued haze will dominate.
