ellensburg

Here's to the brave men and women of a sometimes thankless job...

It's not a charge commonly heard in our area, but it's happened in Klickitat County.

The largest irrigation system in Kittitas County (which includes the cities of Ellensburg, Thorpe, and Cle Elum) has announced they will cease water deliveries for the rest of the 2015 season, due to extreme drought conditions.

A bar in Ellensburg plans to take advantage of the new recreational marijuana law and host a cannibus night.

Officials now say the massive Taylor Bridge fire burning near Thorp and Cle Elum was apparently caused by a crew working near Taylor Bridge less than 13 miles north of Ellensburg.

At first glance driving to work this morning you may have thought from the foggy haze it was December. The smoke in the air is from up north.
