    Probably because the winds are coming from the gorge. We got trees down over here just around the corner.

    We live in West Salem hills and we lost power for 6 hours last night. Several thousand did

    this morning, at 8am it looke like the end of the world outside. Darker than the eclipse with a huge dark cloud of smoke hanging about 2000 feet up. It's settling now and the smell of smoke is heavy outside

    fires all over to the east, north, and west of us within a 100 mile radius

    Welcome fog this morning, but now it's smoke. Red sun behind smoky sky. Not so hot at least.

    I'm in Oregon City and we have blue skies overhead, but I can see the line of smoke just off to the south of us.
