So is Ringwood impacted at all by the surrounding fires? If so-will stay away entirely.

Just got back from night ride. No problems. You can still smell smoke. Race course, White, Red and surrounding connectors all good.

Any idea on the smoke/air quality this morning?

Smoke concentration is high this morning. You can clearly see it and smell it. They were doing controlled burns. Also the fire near greenwood lake area jumped lines so they were fighting that last night. The wind is blowing smoke it this way. AQI is yellow but I think it is higher.

it was business as usual on Sunday, minus the smoke. I believe the smoke is gone now.

Has this rain had any effect on the fires?
