Smoke Outlook for the Cedar Creek Fire, September 16, 2022

Fire

The Cedar Creek Fire in Central Oregon is 93,109 acres with 0% containment. We are expecting moderate fire activity today, with the cooler temperatures and higher relative humidity values continuing. Shifting wind directions and possible light rain during Saturday evening and overnight into Sunday morning may reduce overall fire activity.

Smoke

Areas east and southeast of the Cedar Creek fire will continue to have the greatest impacts today, including Bend, Sunriver, La Pine, Crescent Lake, and Silver Lake. Oakridge will experience good to moderate air quality through the day. Areas to the west and southwest will experience good air quality. The weather system moving into the area on Saturday may reduce overall smoke production. Changing wind directions on Sunday afternoon/evening may push smoke to the northwest of the fire, including the Eugene and Springfield areas.
