More than 8,000 acres have burned in three major fires raging north of Spokane.

Hotels and the convention center are filled with families who had to flee on short notice…some are returning to find their homes burned. Here in Seattle, prepare for smoke. 

We get the view from Spokane with Northwest Public Broadcasting’s Senior Correspondent Anna King.
