I'm in Brinnon, just below Buck Mtn. and get a feed from there. The air quality here at sea level goes from mediocre to bad, depending on the wind direction. Of course it's possible, but not likely, that it spreads to Buck Mtn. But the worst case is it goes East and gets into the Bonneville power lines. There it could take out power to the whole eastern and northern Olympic Peninsula. We have lots of friends along Duckabush Rd. who are susceptable to evacuation. 73, Dave K7DCJ On 8/17/24 6:44 AM, Jamie Hughes wrote:

In the last two days it has grown from 4 to ~350 acres. Details are still somewhat difficult to get as the fire is so new, but it’s current position is about 5 miles south of the Buck Mountain site which serves a good bit of the Seattle area. At the moment the likelihood of getting that far is fairly low, but depends on how successful the containment efforts are. The forecast is a mixed blessing as rain is expected but is in the form of thundershowers Saturday into Sunday. Whether the rain helps or potential lightning and winds add to the problem is yet to be seen.
