In the 20s and 30s around the Seattle area.   The entire area looks good though.  

I go by the private purpleair network, which updates real time.

Given what we went through following the explosion of fires after the mid August heat wave... we are in a far better situation now after multiple rain events which have now been regionwide.    I don't think smoke will be a big concern going forward unless we have another heat wave.

Gorgeous end to August yesterday. 64/60 spread here with .71” rain. Rain and overcast lasted all day with drizzle well into the evening hours. Such a treat to end summer with. Brings the monthly total close to an inch out here. Wettest August since 2019.

PDX’s high of 66 yesterday was their coolest August high since 2013. A nice note to end their warmest month on record on.
