Thursday Sept 04, 2014 Smoke Impact Summary - Klamath NF

Yesterday Winds pushed smoke to the Southwest which impacted the communities of the lower Klamath, Salmon, and Trinity River drainages.  Smoke also travelled northeast into Oregon. Today Smoke is predicted to travel southwest down the Klamath and Salmon River drainages. This will bring smoke into communities west and southwest of the fire.    Tomorrow Weather will be similar to the previous day.  Smoke is predicted to travel in a slightly more southwesterly direction.  This should keep smoke mostly out of the Shasta Valley and reduce concentrations in the Scott Valley.  Minimal smoke if any in Redding.
