Expect areas of smoke South and Southwest of the prescribed burn. As the fire burns down tonight, smoke will decrease
Expect areas of smoke South and Southwest of the prescribed fire today. Effected areas could include Tahoe Donner, and Donner Lake. Overnight winds should shift and smoke should move out into the Prosser Reservoir area. Tomorrow winds will increase a bit to help disperse the smoke. As the prescribed fire burns down there will be less smoke to the area, and looking for very little to no impacts by tomorrow. Here is a link to check the air quality if you are concerned (you can select either the Truckee monitor, or the temporary monitor at Klondike Flats).
