It’s never my intention to cause panic, anxiety, or fear on this account. I really just try and help our community prepare for weather related events.

One thing I like to do regularly is check the live satellite (GOES) feed (pictured). Yesterday’s fire activity in British Columbia was incredible. (You can see the thunderstorm vs smoke in the video)

These fires are separate from the ones mentioned in my last post. They’re occurring closer on the east slopes of the coast range, with additional fires in the interior also burning.

Not expecting this smoke to effect us in the short term, but I have a hunch that what we’re seeing up north may be an indicator of our late summer here in the pnw.

Don’t hesitate to scoop up a box of N95s or an extra air filter for the house before everyone is making a rush for them.

It’s not if, it’s when (my opinion) the smoke is coming.
