2014 Wildfire Season Off To An Early Start
Three wildfire starts in the last 72 hours in
Washington indicate that wildfire season may arrive early this year. The Malaga fire, just 7 miles SE of Wenatchee, was the largest at about 1,200 acres.
It’s now fully contained and the cause is under investigation.
If a large wildfire with serious smoke impacts
occurs, we will begin posting smoke and air quality updates to this blog. In the meantime, remember that many wildfires
are human caused so be careful with fire.
And watch for burn bans in your area.
A good place to find out where burn bans have been issued is here: http://waburnbans.net/
