KLAMATH COUNTY ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH DIVISION WILDFIRE SEASON DAILY UPDATE/FORECAST FOR AIR QUALITY

 

The air quality outlook for today Monday, October 3, 2016, from 8 a.m. today until 8 a.m. Friday   October 7, 2016, is “good”.  The forecasted mixing heights for Klamath County are good all day and on into tomorrow morning.

Always be prepared, because weather conditions and smoke levels can vary dramatically during wildfires, not only from one day to the next, but on an hourly basis. Smoke may also impact one portion of a community but not another.

OUTDOOR AND OPEN BURNING IS PROHIBITED WHILE WE ARE IN FIRE SEASON. WHEN THE FIRE SEASON ADVISORY IS LIFTED, WE WILL POST THE FALL OPEN BURNING DATES, ON THIS SITE AND IN THE PAPER.
