Wildfire Smoke Forecast | ADEQ Arizona Department of Environmental Quality The Polles Fire was mapped overnight at approximately 570 acres. Yesterday, smoke that was produced moved toward the east over the Rim Country. This morning light smoke can be seen on satellite in/around the area.

As was the case yesterday, smoke production will be very dependent on fire activity this afternoon. Smoke produced today will rise and disperse toward the east over Payson and Star Valley, with only light smoke impacts, as smoke is forecast to remain mostly elevated off the ground.

Overnight, smoke is expected to settle into the low lying areas around the fire, including the East Verde River; however, forecasting only light smoke impacts. Smoke will lift Tuesday morning by 9 a.m.

Tomorrow, smoke is forecast to follow a very similar path to what is seen today.
