Fire starts and smoke impacts are increasing

Several new fires in the Lewiston area are adding to the existing impacts in central Idaho today while additional smoke continues to be transported into Idaho from numerous fires in Oregon and California. Mountain valleys in the Salmon River drainage look to be filling with smoke. North of Lewiston should be most free of smoke through Friday.

South Idaho will see increasing smoke through the day into tomorrow morning though an overnight cold front will help clear the smoke from some of the larger valleys, including the Treasure Valley. Most areas will continue to see light to moderate impacts Friday morning.

Near surface smoke impacts through 12 noon Friday
