It was a very smoky night in the city. We aren't under any immediate threat from any wildfires burning in the region, but the thick smoke made many feel uneasy -- & I didn't sleep too great last night. We did get some light rain this morning.

The rectangle's boundaries are Range Road 213 on the west, Township Road 580 on the north, and Range Road 203 on the east. The southern edge is bordered by the river. In previous versions of this map, there was a blue evacuation alert area that extended farther east and west - that area has been removed. The town of Redwater is not included in any active alerts.

It covers nearly all of the Redwater Recreation Area.
