Bedrock Fire
Publication Type: News 08/05/2023
The Bedrock fire is estimated at 12,213 total acres and is 5% contained. No acreage update was available. An increase in clouds and relative humidity may lead to decrease in fire behavior.
Brief smoke impacts are possible along the McKenzie this morning but primarily GOOD conditions are expected. Oakridge and La Pine will see periods of smoke today and into tonight with up to UNHEALTHY conditions at times although some periods of GOOD-MODERATE are also expected. Showers/storms in the area today may cause brief gusty winds and could push smoke in any direction - be alert for quickly changing conditions.
Smoke will be possible over the weekend in Eugene/Springfield during the morning, and McKenzie corridor for morning to midday, with brief MODERATE conditions expected. A majority of the smoke though will continue to be pushed to the southeast of the fire impacting Oakridge, La Pine, and into parts of Klamath and Lake Counties.
