There were several reports of visible smoke Thursday in areas around recent Lake Tahoe controlled burns, and there was more concern with the high winds.
The Forest Service has crews monitoring the locations, especially those near Spooner Summit and Sawmill Road.
At this time there are no burns out of control and with the expected rain and snow Thursday night and Friday morning, concerns should ease.
