WHEN...200 PM Tuesday June 25 to 900 AM Wednesday June 26

IMPACTS...The Oak Ridge Fire is burning approximately 3 miles

Consider relocating temporarily if smoke is present indoors and is
making you ill. If visibility is less than 5 miles in smoke in
your neighborhood, smoke has reached levels that are unhealthy.
