Smoke

What I noticed, was tons of smoke. So much so that I couldn’t see Laramie down in the hill like you normally would.

The Wyoming Department of Health recommends that the elderly, young children and people with respiratory problems avoid excessive physical exertion and minimize outdoor activities.

People with respiratory ailments should avoid prolonged exposure to the smoke.

No injuries have been reported in connection with the blaze.

Even among wildfire experts, understanding of health impacts from smoke was elusive until recently.

Anderson Elementary School in Cheyenne was evacuated late Tuesday morning after smoke was reported in the foyer.

Two men that were in the area of the fire had to retreat to a creek as the fire rapidly moved toward them.

Laramie residents could see some smoke in the sky this weekend, when the Laramie Ranger District fire crews begin conducting prescribed burns Friday, April 27 and Sunday, April 29.

The Laramie Fire Department determined that a call regarding a fire in the 200 block of Grand Avenue Thursday was a false alarm.

Much of western Montana was under a more severe red flag warning Saturday, indicating the weather could contribute to extreme fire behavior.
