The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality’s Air Pollution Advisory continues through 4:00 p.m. Friday.

The Cedar Creek Fire near Oakridge combined with periods of easterly and northerly winds will cause smoke concentrations to increase. Air quality is expected to reach unhealthy levels at times in Douglas County.

Smoke levels can change rapidly depending on the weather. Check current conditions on the DEQ link: https://www.oregon.gov/deq/aq/pages/aqi.aspx
