Smoke from catastrophic wildfires in #Spokane and #Okanagan are creating dangerous conditions for outdoor workers.
When AQI is above 101, employers must provide respirators to workers for voluntary use! An N95 is best. Be #SmokeReady #SinlahekinFire #FairviewFire #AutumnLaneFire

Holy crap.
Level 3 (GO NOW!) zone now includes urban Spokane, south of Francis to Wellesley. Level 2 (GET SET!) zone now extends east of Division.
Not to be alarmist, but at this rate, it’s not inconceivable that the Old Trails Fire merges with the Fairview Fire.
