Smoke got more intense overhead late this afternoon into the evening, everything is covered with ash now, falling like snow at times!
A bunch of us have been outside after supper watering our lawns down, and some are doing roofs too. I did part of my roof.
Now the smoke looks to be blowing north and has subsided quite a bit. The fire has obviously moved away from Gregoire, Beacon Hill and Abasand back west towards the Athabasca. That's good.
Tomorrow may be interesting. Winds forecast to pick up in the afternoon and blow from the west - bringing it all back towards us again.
