Sherri Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 Anyone know how bad the air quality is in Leavenworth as a result of the smoke? From Index today, we noted a nasty haze hovering over the Pass. Quote
Sol Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 it's pretty bad. I could not see wedge mtn from near downtown in the early evening. reports of folks not climbing bcuz the smoke was so bad. nonetheless, it wont stop me from getting out in the am. Quote
Hmann Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 Id imagine its REALLY bad. Was at 38 today and there was smoke drifting that far. Quote

montypiton Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 on Monday, in Leavenworth, you couldn't see Tumwater Mountain from downtown. It felt like 1994 (Rat Creek Fire). air was much better Tuesday/Wednesday, and is tolerable today (Thursday). Most fires are east, closer to Wenatchee. Cragging is tolerable, (a half-day on Castle Rock yesterday) probably inadvisable for those with asthma or COPD. Neighborhoods up Blewett Pass (Camas Creek, Valley High) remain on level-2 alert.
