Tahoe Fire & Fuels Team plans to continue controlled burns around Lake Tahoe this week if weather conditions are favorable. The burns aim to protect communities by reducing wildfire fuel, such as excess vegetation. While smoke will be present, officials note it is less intense and shorter than wildfire smoke.
