Thank you Mark for the latest info. Your briefings are the best…period. Hopefully conditions improve for all involved with the fires.

Good morning, Mark and fellow weather watchers. This morning the Orchard Cottage Weather Center in Oakdale, CA reported a low of 64°. As of 9 am its 84°. That is 1° warmer than this time yesterday. Winds out of the SW 1-4 mph. 39% humidity. Thank for the updated information from the Mark Finan Weather and Fire Watch Center. Bill

Thank you for the update Mark. We left Cali after going thru the Camp Fire, but I still have family & friends there. My brother is in Magalia so this helps me feel a little more at ease.

Mark, thank you for this briefing. Being out of state, I have to rely on the Watch Duty app and your forecasts/updates to keep "in the know". We have been having smoke issues in Southern Idaho primarily from the Cow Creek/Durkee Fires in SE Oregon for almost 4 weeks now (winds blowing smoke into both Boise & Twin Falls areas). AQI has been around 90-100. We had severe thunderstorms/rain/wind last night temporarily pushing all out. When I awoke this morning, I could smell smoke, and AQI was 160 at 6 am. I knew right then and there that was smoke from the Park Fire in Chico, CA. I pray for some type of containment today!

North complex/ bear fire

[@Equilibrium-Manifesto]

Bear fire one you forgot .

[@josephnason8770]

Mark is getting us conditioned to using centigrade by not mentioning Fahrenheit. This is a pity. His listeners know how 90 Fahrenheit feels but not whatever degrees centigrade feels. He understands that people need to change even at the most basic, mundane level. This is a pity.

[@wendygerrish4964]

Its best to use both and remain flexible. Farenheit is more accurate in my opinion, C is a much coarser...since tenths are not used.

[@deannaedmondson1963]

We're not in control of mother nature PGE should give us a break 😊
