Smoke Update

For those observing the large smoke plume visible throughout much of Central Oregon, smoke is continuing to enter Central Oregon from northern California. The Lava and Tennant fires near Mt. Lassen continue to burn and contribute large amounts of smoke, as shown in the GOES satellite image below. Residents may also be observing lesser amounts of localized smoke from several of the fires that are burning across the region. Currently, air quality remains “good” across the region.
