...ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT, THEN AGAIN THURSDAY AFTERNOON... .Low pressure will move into the region late this afternoon and overnight, providing sufficient trigger for thunderstorm initiation. Isolated storms will initially start out over portions of northern California later this afternoon, then move northeastward and continue into the overnight hours. After a relative lull early Thursday morning, another round of isolated to scattered thunderstorms is expected across northern Klamath and Lake Counties Thursday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Abundant lightning on dry fuels will increase the risk of new fire starts. Additionally, gusty outflow winds will allow for new and existing fires to grow rapidly. * AFFECTED AREA...Most of Oregon Fire Zones 624 and 625 north of Highway 140. This includes the Warner Peak Fire, though the greatest coverage of storms is likely to be north and west of the Warner Peak Fire. * THUNDERSTORMS...Isolated to scattered thunderstorms this evening and overnight with a relative lull in thunderstorm activity expected early Thursday morning. Another round of isolated to scattered thunderstorms is expected Thursday afternoon and evening, with the greatest coverage expected north of a line from Chiloquin to Paisley. Despite potential rain with these thunderstorms, lightning strikes outside of precipitation cores are possible and cause for concern. * OUTFLOW WINDS...Quickly shifting winds with outflow gusts up to 40 to 50 mph.

Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has issued an Air Pollution Advisory...in effect until at least 3 PM PDT Friday. The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality issued an air quality advisory for Lake and northern Klamath counties due to wildfires burning in the region. The DEQ also expects intermittent smoke in eastern Douglas and Jackson County through this period due to smoke from surrounding fires. The wildfire smoke combined with forecast conditions will cause air quality levels to fluctuate and could be at unhealthy levels. Smoke levels can change rapidly depending on the weather and planned burn operations. Smoke can irritate the eyes and lungs and worsen some medical conditions. People most at risk include infants and young children, people with heart or lung disease, older adults and pregnant people. People can take the following precautions to protect their health: - Follow local burn restrictions to prevent deteriorating air quality. - Avoid strenuous outdoor activity during periods of poor air quality. - People with heart or lung problems and young children are especially vulnerable. These people should stay indoors while smoke levels are high. - Use certified High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters in indoor heating, ventilation, cooling and air purification systems. - Avoid using wood-burning stoves and other sources of indoor smoke if possible.

Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has issued an Air Pollution Advisory...in effect until at least 5 PM PDT Wednesday. The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality issued an air quality advisory for Lake, Klamath, eastern Douglas, and northern Jackson counties due to wildfires burning in the region. The DEQ also expects intermittent smoke in southern Jackson County through this period due to smoke from surrounding fires. The wildfire smoke combined with forecast conditions will cause air quality levels to fluctuate and could be at unhealthy levels. Smoke levels can change rapidly depending on the weather and planned burn operations. Smoke can irritate the eyes and lungs and worsen some medical conditions. People most at risk include infants and young children, people with heart or lung disease, older adults and pregnant people. People can take the following precautions to protect their health: - Follow local burn restrictions to prevent deteriorating air quality. - Avoid strenuous outdoor activity during periods of poor air quality. - People with heart or lung problems and young children are especially vulnerable. These people should stay indoors while smoke levels are high. - Use certified High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters in indoor heating, ventilation, cooling and air purification systems. - Avoid using wood-burning stoves and other sources of indoor smoke if possible.
