Smoke & Heat Grip Northwest | Seattle News

Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description

Smoke from wildfires across Washington and British Columbia is blanketing the region, triggering an air quality alert for King, Kitsap, Pierce, Snohomish, and Thurston counties through Wednesday — with temperatures soaring into the 80s and 90s. Visibility’s dropping, air quality’s turning moderate to poor in Seattle, Everett, and worse east of the Cascades — especially in Leavenworth and Ellensburg. Officials warn the alert may extend if smoke lingers, while marine air could finally clear things by Friday — but central and eastern WA might still be stuck with haze and heat into the weekend, plus dangerous wind conditions that could worsen wildfires.
