Our promised rains better show up next week. I'm so tired of this endless summer.

I assume you should get used to it. Hopefully I am wrong.

No way, lol. I moved from an endless summer state for a reason. The short but glorious PNW summers of the past are perfect!

We need the rain though. This isn’t the Washington I know and love.

Just be ready for the rain. That’s what this state is know for.

Not on the east side of the state. Dry is normal for us, the high temps are just about 10-12 degrees higher than usual.

Wasn’t expecting to see Eatonville on Reddit today!

I’m very surprised and impressed you could tell just from the church and the auto body shop.

I'm in S Everett, and you could REALLY smell the smoke at 7 am this morning.

It wasn't terribly hazy outside, but you can still smell it now at 1:30.

My air purifier is working hard this year with the wildfires. :( I can't wait for the promised rains to show up...

I never thought that I would actually wish for the rain to come, but I really hope it comes in

This smoke is horrible, normally it would only happen in August.

New normally it would be in August. In my 47 years living here I can’t think of a single summer with smoke before the 2010s onward.

So sad all the fires in Oregon and Washington. Was out in cascades two months ago and got a severe asthma attack from the Wenatchee fire. Still dealing with it. Feel really bad for asthmatics in areas with forest fires.

I'd be happiest if it went directly from gorgeous sunny days to heavy snow days. Bring on the winter!

Thanx for not posting another Pic where that garbage is described as beautiful.

River_Hippie18 OP t1_ismgmmj wrote

It can make for some really cool photos but yeah, I’m done with this smoke and fires. This fire is new I believe and isn’t far from town.

Clear on the west side today. AQI of 62 (vs 162 Saturday). Yet much warmer than yesterday.

I'm in Skagit Valley and it's super bad. As it has been for about 3 weeks.

Wellcraft19 t1_ismqgpr wrote

Yeah, heard Snohomish and north has seen much more of the smoke than the Seattle area.

Bremerton is pretty bad too, just in the 50 yds that is my backyard there's a decent amount of haze.

Wellcraft19 t1_isp41g5 wrote

As many others have said, air quality (and the AQI) vary much locally. Some of us are in protected 'valleys'. Others are in valleys so 'protected' they fill with smoke quickly.

There have been so many years past that were MUCH worse for wildfires. This one hasn't really been that bad, comparatively speaking.
