Plume of smoke being produced by the #WildcatFire this afternoon/evening. Hopefully the incoming rain helps suppress the multitude of fires across WA

Thursday was a bad day for fires in the Cascades. The #LaborMountainFire crossed US-97 and grew nearly 8K acres. The #LowerSugarloafFire grew 4K acres to the SE, with new level 3 evacuations. The #WildcatFire grew too, getting very close to Goose Prairie. #wawx

Quite a bit of activity on the Wildcat Fire today. This is a ~30 minute time lapse taken from the Ironstone Mountain Trail late this afternoon. Triangular peak in foreground is Mt. Aix.

Drone shot on the evening of Tuesday, Sept. 2nd, as the smoke plume from the #WildcatFire blew north over Cle Elum. The fire would go on to grow over 3,000 acres in the ensuing 24 hours. #wawx

Fingers crossed for some rain over the #WildcatFire and #LowerSugarloafFire tonight to help dampen potential fuel sources and scour out some of this smoke #wawx #wawildfire

We’ve got shower and thunderstorm activity moving NW this morning off the Cascades. How far it lasts is questionable, but decaying storms are producing some rain over Thurston County (high-based storms), and there has been lightning over the Cascades near the #WildcatFire. #wawx

We’re seeing pyrocumulus plumes off the #WildcatFire, east of Mt. Rainier, and the #LaborMountainFire, north of Cle Elum this Friday afternoon. Some of this smoke, blowing NW, is rapidly degrading AQI around parts of Seattle and Lake Washington. #wawx

Asà se veÃa el estado de Washington🇺🇸 desde el GOES-19 ayer a última hora de la tarde. Totalmente cubierto por el humo de decenas de incendios forestales. Destaca el inmenso pirocumulonimbus #PyroCb del #WildcatFire que podrÃa perfectamente haber alcanzado los 13K metros de altitud:

This is no typical anvil cloud, it’s the anvil cloud from unusual pyrocumulonimbus activity stemming from the #WildcatFire.
Current view from Cle Elum, WA #wawx

Really worrying to see the #Wildcatfire headed towards the the PCT and Chinook Pass - I hate to see this one explode in one of my favorite places in the Cascades. We need rain ASAP. #wawx

Fires around the region are burning hot on satellite imagery. I've overlaid longwave IR satellite to show clouds. The #WildcatFire is stealing the show with cold cloud tops over the fire. These are pycrocumulus extending more than 35,000 feet into the atmosphere. #wawx #wawildfire
