산불 하루 100만 달러 사라져

워싱턴주의 Labor Mountain 산불이 Okanogan-Wenatchee 국립 숲을 빠르게 확산하며 심각한 상황입니다. 화재는 현재 단지 7%만 진압된 상태로, Cle Elum 근처의 험준한 지형을 관통하고 있습니다 🌲🔥 소방대원들은 Blewett Pass를 폐쇄했으며, 고속도로 주변의 나무들이 거의 모두 소실되어 위험성이 증가했습니다. 이 지역에서 화재 진압은 미국에서 가장 어려운 작업 중 하나로 알려져 있습니다 📢 “현재 수백 명의 소방관들이 투입되고 있지만, 최근 비에도 불구하고 아직 완전히 꺼지지 않은 ‘좀비 불꽃’이라는 깊은 숲 속의 열점들을 완전히 끄는 데는 실패했습니다.” 이로 인해 주 재정에 하루 100만 달러 이상의 손실이 발생 중입니다 💸 공공 토지 책임자 Dave Upthegrove는 산불 시즌의 심각성 증가를 경고하며, 올해 화재 발생 건수가 작년보다 많고 더 큰 피해가 예상된다고 밝혔습니다. Cle Elum 지역은 지난 주 국가에서 가장 나쁜 공기 질을 기록했습니다 🌬️ 앞으로 더 강력한 재정 지원 없이는 더욱 위험하고 비용이 많이 드는 산불 사태를 피할 수 없다는 우려가 제기되었습니다. 주민 여러분의 주의와 협력이 절실합니다 💪 함께 대응 방안을 모색해봅시다!

The Labor Mountain Fire is raging through the rugged Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest, and is only 7% contained.

CLE ELUM, Wash. – For the first time since lightning sparked the Labor Mountain Fire, Seattle is getting a close-up view of the fire line burning through the rugged terrain of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest.

At just 7% containment, crews have blocked off the highly-traveled Blewett Pass as trees surrounding the highway have been reduced to matchsticks.

“This is one of the most potentially dangerous areas to fight fire in the United States,” said Jeff Dimke, incident commander for the Labor Mountain Fire.

Big picture view:

During the visit to the fire line just a few miles past the summit toward Peshastin, crews pointed out smoldering patches known as “zombie fires” — pockets of heat buried deep in the forest floor that can come back to life long after flames appear to be out. Despite recent rain, firefighters said the moisture wasn’t enough to fully extinguish these stubborn hotspots.

More than 1,300 firefighters are battling this particular fire, while hundreds of nearby residents have been told to evacuate. The firefighting effort is costing the state approximately $1 million per day.

During a press conference in Cle Elum on Wednesday afternoon, Commissioner of Public Lands Dave Upthegrove, emphasized the growing severity of wildfire seasons.

“We’re into October now, and as folks in Western Washington are preparing to put up their Halloween decorations, folks here in Central Washington are still experiencing the impacts of major fires burning on the landscape,” Upthegrove said. “This year, we have more fire starts than last year, and anticipate more burning than last year.”

Air quality has also taken a hit. Upthegrove said last week the Cle Elum area recorded the worst air quality in the nation.

What’s next:

Looking ahead, Upthegrove warned of escalating fire risks and financial burdens unless the state legislature restores wildfire prevention and response funding.

“If the legislature doesn’t restore wildfire prevention and response funding, we will see more fires, bigger fires, and higher costs to taxpayers,” he argued.
