After a busy night of fires and fireworks, smoke is creating air quality issues today. FOX13
Check out our smoke futurecast below. The overall trend is that smoke will thin out tomorrow in the lower levels of the atmosphere, but a few trouble spots remain if the McEwan Fire is ongoing and if people keep setting off fireworks. Something to keep in mind: even if air quality gets better at the surface, some high-level smoke may linger.
A Red Flag Warning is posted until 7 tonight for the Central and South Cascades and Southwest Washington. Dry and unstable air is elevating the threat for fires. Some good news: winds both near the surface and in the upper levels of the atmosphere will be generally coming from a westerly direction from Friday through Tuesday. This will help scrub out the smoke and usher in cleaner air from the Pacific Ocean. Of course, this forecast is subject to change. Stay tuned for any updates!
One note: there's a slight chance for a few showers and thunderstorms over the Cascades today through Friday. The lowlands of Whatcom and Skagit Counties could even get a little thunder today. Any storms today could feature lightning and gusty conditions. Enjoy the beautiful sunshine this upcoming weekend! Please do your part to not start any fires in our state.
