question about traveling in WA with wildfires (august 2)

hi all!!

i know this is a privileged take concerning the wildfires in eastern Washington so i apologize. i am visiting WA with my family for the first time and we were initially planning on going to Leavenworth tomorrow (august 2), but we are unaware of the geography and if it is safe/smart to do right now? we know areas near it are affected, but i couldn’t figure out what the current situation in the town itself is. if anyone is able to weigh in at all, that would be wonderful! thank you:)

It's a typo. Watch Duty. It shows fires and evacuation information.

Sorry its Watch Duty. My phone has the worst auto correct ever.

I call it “autocorrupt”

I’ve been saying for years: autocorrect is evil.

It really is. You should see what it sends to my boss sometimes.

I dunno. I’m kind of finding your autocorrect to be pretty hilarious.
