π₯ Summerhill Farm Fire & Air Quality Update
We know many of you have been watching the wildfire and smoke conditions around Central Washington, so we wanted to share an update for anyone planning a visit to Summerhill Farm.
The good news: we are open, safe, and operating normally. The active fires shown on the maps are well away from our immediate area and developed communities, and we are not currently under any evacuation orders or expecting evacuation concerns at the farm.
π«οΈ Air Quality:
Smoke has definitely been an issue throughout the region over the past several days β and unfortunately, much of Washington is experiencing smoky conditions during what has been a very active fire season.
Thankfully, we are already seeing a lot of improvement in the Lake Chelan Valley, and weβre optimistic that conditions will continue to improve over the weekend. Light winds in the forecast should help move some of the lingering smoke out of the valley.
One thing our guests may also notice is that air quality can often be better up here at the farm than down along the lake and valley floor. Because we sit higher above the valley, smoke conditions can vary quite a bit depending on the day and wind direction.
β€οΈ What we want our guests to know:
Summerhill Farm RV Park is OPEN
We are SAFE and not under evacuation orders
The fires are away from our immediate area
Smoke has been improving
Conditions can change throughout the day, but weβre hopeful for continued improvement this weekend
If you have a reservation with us, there is currently no reason to cancel your trip based on fire danger at Summerhill Farm. Weβll continue keeping a close eye on conditions and will communicate with our guests if anything meaningfully changes.
Weβre looking forward to a beautiful weekend at the farm and hope to see you soon! π»π΄ποΈ
Feel free to share this post with anyone wondering about conditions in the Lake Chelan area.
