Good morning, it's Monday, August 5th. I'm Kristie McIntyre with your Mid-Columbia news from The Tri-City Herald. Widespread haze and smoke will blur the sunny skies today in the Tri-Cities. But it will still be hot. Forecasters expect the high today will push close to 100. Winds will be light, maybe up to 10 miles per hour this afternoon. And tomorrow could be even hotter, near 102. Our top story is: Smoke from the Williams Flats Fire near Grand Coulee Dam is drifting south over the Tri-Cities.
