Special Statement

Additional monitoring locations will be added to the Smoke Outlook over the next couple days.

Fire

The Acorn and Packsaddle fires saw minimal growth yesterday, while the Long and Trout remain the most active of the SQF Lightning Fires. Expected fire behavior includes group torching, spotting, and uphill runs. 

Smoke

Yesterday, smoke generally tracked to the NW and impacted foothill communities causing MODERATE to USG conditions throughout the Outlook area. Expect similar smoke transport today with westside communities seeing MODERATE to USG conditions. The Owens Valley should see slightly less smoke with generally MODERATE conditions in the afternoon. Smoke that pooled overnight should begin to lift by early afternoon as solar heating increases and overnight inversions break.
