Unfortunately it is becoming increasingly likely that large parts of Colorado will see a noticeable increase in ground-level smoke concentrations over the next 24-36 hours. To start, surface smoke levels across the northern plains states will be pushed into northeastern Colorado along with locations further southward along the Kansas stateline during the afternoon hours on Sunday. The good news in these areas that we are also anticipating showers and thunderstorms Sunday afternoon, so smoke will be disbursed and have difficulty getting established due to the unsettled weather.
The CDPHE Air Pollution Control Division periodically updates this page to provide information about smoke in Colorado. This page covers wildfire activity, prescribed burning operations, and the transport of smoke from out-of-state sources.
