Thanks Joe and Jarred. I should have added there were no knots and I am using carbide resaw king. No burn marks on the wood either. No problem resawing, you can tell from my feed rate; so not a dull blade.?I was wondering if it was steam.?

Seems if there is burning after hitting knots then it¡¯s likely the blade is dull.?

I don't know what the cause is, but I've experienced the same thing on both WRC and most recently Tennessee Aromatic Cedar. I believe it had something to do with hitting the knots, but I was certain I was going to get a burning ember into my dust collector and be quite sad. I don't see any apparent knots on the boards you're sawing though, so that may not be?the case.
Sorry about the video resolution. I don¡¯t recall this happening with iphone 7 but iphone 13 does this resolution reduction w/o asking. Anyhow, can still see the smoke just not as clearly as in full resolution.

?I did some resawing today. Splitting 2x8 WRC. On some boards, I saw smoke coming out at the beginning of the cut but the blade was cold to touch after I finished. Does anyone know what is happening?
Short video attached.
