The smoke here in Grants Pass varies from day to day. In the morning the smoke lays low, spreading out during the day as wind and temperatures work on it. Some days it is hard to see mountains a mile away the smoke is so thick.
Coming back to Grants Pass this morning from Lake Selmac ( 8:30 a.m.) I noticed the fire near Galice was causing a lot of smoke already in Grants Pass.
It has been smokey in Eureka for several days from the fires north of us but it is even heavier today. Lots of ash also. The winds are N/NE.
