This weekend should be clear of any wildfire smoke, with Good air quality expected. Conditions will be cool, cloudy, and wet in most parts of the state. Lightning is a concern for fire starts, but the cool temperatures and expected precipitation should abate the potential for new wildfires. Furthermore, the Fire Danger Index is currently low to moderate for most of the state.
However, a warming and drying trend is expected to start on Sunday, and by the middle of next week we will see temperatures reach the 90s! This will increase the chance of wildfires and smoke in the Pacific Northwest.
