We know lingering smoke and subsequent poor air quality in Mendocino County is dangerous —but how dangerous? A medical doctor, scientist, and air quality specialist offer answers.
The August Complex burns on; with thousands of resources at hand, firefighters continue to try to build containment lines. But even with lighter winds, dry fuels and the massive nature of the complex is making things difficult.
he August Complex continues its march into the record books, hitting 877,477 acres as of this morning, larger than the state of Rhode Island.
The August Complex is now being managed as two separate complexes, August Complex North Zone and August Complex South Zone
After a week of powerful winds that resulted in an explosive spread of the August Complex fire, tamer weather conditions are allowing firefighters to get back on the ground and work to keep the fire from spreading further.
