Episode Details

Wildfire season is here, but Southwest Washington might be getting lucky this year—cooler temps and rain in May and June slowed drying, preserved snowpack, and kept temps in the 60s-70s instead of scorching 90s. Still, warmer-than-average summer temps mean fire risk remains high. Smoke can hurt even healthy people, so limit outdoor time and avoid strenuous activity when air quality drops. Kids, seniors, and those with health issues are especially vulnerable. Wear a properly fitted N95 or N100 mask, check air quality reports (like the Southwest Clean Air Agency’s), and prep your home with air filters or portable cleaners. Set AC to recirculate, plan indoor activities, and know how to use a respirator—stay safe and ready.
