re: I smell smoke in St George

St Charles Parish:
quote:
The EOC and 911 have received numerous calls parish wide about a smoke smell, haze, and ash. There are no reported fires in St. Charles Parish at this time and there are no visible plumes of smoke from our EOC tower cameras.
It is possible that what people are experiencing is from the large wildfire in Southwest Louisiana. It is not uncommon for smoke to travel hundreds of miles.
Update: US National Weather Service New Orleans Louisiana has confirmed that due to the temperature inversion and winds out of the west, this is from the fires in Beauregard. The same conditions will occur tomorrow. We appreciate the communities vigilance in reporting this occurrence and remind everyone that we are under a statewide burn ban due to the extremely dry and hot conditions.

Experienced this in Colorado. Fires were hundreds of miles away, but it smelled like sitting at a barbeque.
