Smoke filters the sunshine for some

(Smoky "pre"-sunrise - Tuesday, June 26th, 2007)

Smoke from the "White Fire" near Rosamond has been filtering the sun for some over portions of the high desert region of San Bernardino county.

There's been reports at times of the smoke as far east as portions of southern Nevada/northwest Arizona and southwest Utah.

The fire is 60% contained as of late Wednesday at 11,300 acres.
12 homes and 6 outbuildings have been destroyed.

The fire threat is expected to increase by the Fourth of July as an offshore flow is expected to develop over the southland. Temperatures may reach around 90 for mid city LA and in the lower 100s over some interior valleys.

There's even an outside risk of an afternoon or evening "dry" thunderstorm over the southern mountains and portions of the high desert region on the fourth and even a few days beyond that.
