AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Wildfire Emergency in Spokane: Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson declared a statewide emergency and burn ban as fast-moving wildfires—led by the Old Trails Fire—burned about 250,000 acres and triggered Level 3 evacuation orders around Spokane, with thousands told to leave and tens of thousands without power. Fire Weather Alert: Officials cited extreme heat, strong winds, and very dry conditions, including a rare “particularly dangerous situation” red-flag warning for eastern Washington. On-the-Ground Evacuations: Reports say the Old Trails Fire threatened thousands of structures near Spokane, with the National Guard mobilized to support responders. Community & Culture: In Seattle, Alki Beach Pride’s giant beach-ball moment blew away in the wind—but organizers say it was recovered, and the festival is set for Aug. 15. Tourism Watch: With smoke and evacuations affecting eastern Washington, travelers may want to check local alerts before heading to Spokane-area parks and routes.
