Smoke has arrived in Seattle, but the other side of the Cascades is absolutely brutal. Wenatchee and other towns (e.g., Plain, Entiat) have been over 1,000 AQI today. Please use air purifiers, N95 masks, and avoid being outdoors if you’re able - there is no safe level of wildfire smoke exposure.
Wildfire smoke has moved into Seattle. An air quality alert is in effect until at least Wednesday at 5:00 PM. Air quality may reach unhealthy levels through Thursday. Visit the City's Wildfire Smoke Safety page: seattle.gov/wildfire-smoke-safety
