[ARCHIVED] Air Quality Remains “Unhealthy for Everyone” in King County

Air quality in almost all areas of King County – including Snoqualmie – remains “Unhealthy for Everyone” according to the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency.

Air quality is expected to improve late Thursday or Friday due to rain showers that should clear out most of the smoke.

A map of 24-hour particle pollution is posted on the agency’s website, with the closest agency monitor in North Bend.

Please stay indoors as much as possible with windows and doors closed.

Learn more about wildfire smoke and health safety on the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency website.

Note: A Stage 2 burn ban remains in effect throughout King County.
