From the website of Representative Earl Blumenauer

As wildfires continue to spread across the state, it’s crucial to stay alert and informed about the changing conditions. Included below are resources with more information on how to prepare for potential evacuations and what to do if your family is impacted. We will continue to update this page as the situation evolves.

Smoke & Air Quality: 

Evacuation updates by county:

 

Levels of Evacuation:

  • Level 1: BE READY for potential evacuation. You should be aware of the danger that exists in the area, monitor emergency services websites and local media outlets for information. This is the time for preparation and precautionary movements of persons with special needs, mobile property and (under certain circumstances) pets and livestock. If conditions worsen, emergency services personnel may contact you via an emergency notification system.
  • Level 2: BE SET to evacuate. You must prepare to leave at a moment’s notice. This level indicates there is significant danger to your area, and residents should either voluntary relocate to a shelter or with family and friends outside of the affected area, or if choosing to remain, to be ready to evacuate at a moment’s notice. Residents MAY have time to gather necessary items, but doing so is at their own risk. This may be the only notice you receive. Emergency services cannot guarantee that they will be able to notify you if conditions rapidly deteriorate. Area media services will be asked to broadcast periodic updates.
  • Level 3: GO! Evacuate now! Leave immediately! Danger to your area is current or imminent, and you should evacuate immediately. If you choose to ignore this advisement, you must understand that emergency services may not be available to assist you further. DO NOT delay leaving to gather any belongings or make efforts to protect your home. This will be the last notice you receive.

Track Power Outages:

Earl Blumenauer and his staff are here for you. Please give us a call at (503) 231-2300 and we’ll do everything we can to help.

Protest tonight is CANCELED.

Air quality is worsening. Expect thick smoke and very poor air quality to shift into the Portland metro this afternoon and evening, lasting into the weekend. The recommendation for the Portland Metro Area is to stay inside if at all possible with your windows closed.
