With over 251,000 acres scorched this year, Washington State is still grappling with wildfires. But the good news? It's not as bad as last year.

Good news for anyone tired of driving the detour for Blewett Pass on US-97, because it is back open.

Cooler autumn air can't quench the flames raging across Washington State. The struggle continues for our brave firefighters battling these wild blazes.

Yesterday (Thursday, September 25), WSDOT gave an update and confirmed Blewett Pass (milepost 149 to 178) was still closed because of the ongoing Labor Mountain Fire.

These cooler temperatures that we’ve seen across the Northwest, and much of the western U.S., will come to an end in the coming days.

Thanks to the dry, hot weather, several wildfires are burning across the west, and in the Northwest. Currently there are about fires across the three states.

At least five homes were destroyed by a wildfire that sparked in Okanogan County on Monday afternoon.

Hot and windy weather helped in sparking and spreading a pair of wildfires in Chelan County late Wednesday afternoon.
