Extreme heat has sparked forest fires throughout central British Columbia, the region that broke Canadaâs all-time temperature record three days in a row: 116, then 118, then, on Tuesday, 121 degrees Fahrenheit.
Satellite images showed smoke from those fires heading away from Washington, but the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency forecasts that some smoke could reach the Puget Sound region, probably staying high overhead, by Friday afternoon.

Along with the progress that’s been made on the fish ladder at the Big Bar Landslide, work is also happening on what is called assisted fish transport measures.
Gwill Roberts, Director of Big Bar Land Response with Fisheries and Ocean Canada, said they are renovating a structure that was built last year to help the early arriving salmon that come up the Fraser to get over the barrier because there still is a barrier for those particular stocks.
“These salmon will move up a side channel and they’ll go up what we call a concrete block fish ladder,” Roberts said, “That fish allows us to hold the fish in a pool and then collect them and put them into trucks to move them about 5 kilometers north for release back into the Fraser.”
