The forecast winds might scour out some smoke. Or they might just fan the flames. Crossing my fingers.

We're on our way. And about 180 family, neighbors, and close friends!

 

Just kidding. Currently 108 here at 7:00 pm.

No problem just join the rest of the population.

The winds have blown a lot of smoke into the Portland Metro area. We’re having average 16 mph winds here in Hillsboro, Or with a gust to 20. Very unusual for September. Hope I don’t lose any of my Doug firs.

Wow -- look at all that smoke on the water...

 

The air is clear and "normal" looking today here on "the east side" (east of the Cascade Range).  But very-unseasonably cold -- 52F at 10 am. :o

Are you sure! Yesterday, walked the dog in cut-offs and a "T" shirt and temp in the 90's; today I wore long pants and a sweat shirt and it was in the 60's with a very cold and brisk north wind!  By Friday, it is supposed to be in the 80's. I'm not really sure what season it is any more but that wind out there is something else ---and with all the Red Flag Warnings and fire restrictions, it is not the time you want to go camping and build a fire or use fire works!  Not the mention all the idiots running around  out there doing unsafe things-like some using fire works to celebrate, OMG, it sure is getting harder and harder to find a place to play (and I just started to unpack my fire ready bag too!)

Impressive satellite photo! The wind is blowing here. I bet everyone is concerned about the radical wind shift dealing with the fires. The Slink Fire will now be moving west into the East Fork Carson River. We have ash today with the winds.

I got up and it was 79. Pretty gusty. I hope my new antenna was correct about not needing to be guyed.
