I have friends in Rathdrum and Post Falls, probably getting very smokey there. My daughter in Kettle Falls WA has a dangerous level of smoke. Higher than normal here in Spokane too. I didn’t go out today and neither did my cat.

A couple days ago, the wind shifted to from the east and you could see the horizontal plume traveling over to Rathdrum. It’s smoky in the morning (maybe due to inversion layers holding the smoke down?), but by noon it’s been fairly clear.

There was a small fire in Athol just off of 95 at the Silverwood Park a couple days ago. They got that one out quickly. A friend here is a retired Battalion Chief from Los Angeles and he works on Search & Rescue here. He was called out to assist with traffic management, but he was only on the job for three hours.
