Smoke from the Taylor Bridge Fire has prompted air quality warnings in Spokane County. Right now Spokanes air quality index is at 71, which is just shy of whats considered unhealthy for people with respiratory problems.The good news is that the haze over Spokane isnt the result of stagnant air but from a plume of smoke from the Taylor Bridge Fire, which means the smoke will blow out of the area as soon as the wind changes direction. Mondays five acre fire near Spokane Falls Community College was just a preview of the smoke still to come. Overnight, the brown haze from the Taylor Bridge Fire in Cle Elum started to drift into the area.
