Limepoint and Cliff Mountain Smoke Outlook - Friday August 9, 2024 08-09-2024

Limepoint Fire, Cliff Mountain
Publication Type: Announcement - 08/09/2024 - 07:15

Fire
Western Idaho and eastern Oregon fires are significantly influencing AQI, especially the Paddock 
Fire north of Emmett. For more information on Limepoint/Cliff Mountain fire and other wildfire 
incidents, please visit Inciweb: https://inciweb.wildfire.gov/incident-information/ and the NASA FIRMs site:
https://firms2.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/usfs/map/#d:24hrs;@- 116.04,44.46,9.17z
 

Smoke
Surface winds will move smoke S until late morning shifting to the east until mid-afternoon, then 
toward the SE through late evening, eventually trending S through the night and into Saturday 
morning. This trend will keep communities S and SW of the cluster of Idaho fires (Paddock, Snag, 
Boulder, and Bulldog) in USG-UNH throughout the day, following a similar pattern from the previous 
day. The Town Gulch fire SW of Halfway, OR continues to heavily impair AQI for that community and 
to a lesser extent communities following the ID-95 corridor south (Council, Weiser, Ontario). For 
those in UNH or worse AQI please visit this site for construction of a home air purifier: 
https://deohs.washington.edu/edge/blog/how-make-box-fan- filter-clean-indoor-air-smoke. Air quality 
in Riggins will fluctuate between MODERATE and USG from today's defensive firing operations on the 
Limepoint Fire. Enterprise and Grangeville should expect MODERATE conditions today.
