Yesterday:
The onset of cooler and wetter weather reduced emissions and overall
smoke impacts in and adjacent to the fire area. Rain fell in varying amounts
across the fire, further reducing smoke production. Highest concentrations in smoke were seen in
communities within drainages were smoke pooled overnight such as: Garden
Valley, Camino, and Pollock Pines.
Today: Conditions will
be similar to yesterday. Good overnight humidity, cool temps and thunderstorms
showers to continue to aid in the suppression efforts and reduce
emissions. Smoke impacts will be local
to the fire area. Smoke concentrations will be highest in mountain canyons in
the morning and disperse south along the front of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
Tomorrow: Weather will be drying and warming for the next
few days. Smoke may continue to pool
locally in canyons and disperse as the day heats up. Locally, the highest impacts
are forecast in the Garden Valley community.
****This is the
last smoke report for the King Fire****
Expect conditions to
improve overtime as interior heat in the fire is extinguished. Communities closest to the fire will continue
to experience smoke in the evening and early morning hours.
