Our area hit the high 400s coupla years ago. REALLY unpleasant. I coughed for days.

Bothell was 269 last night.

It's not even 200 what are ya whining about - that's not even half of the worst air in Oregon. Oakridge has some ugly air today... hell we've seen numbers over 1000 at times in california. Not this year thankfully, but the last two... ugh...

I keep purpleair up at all times - it's very helpful knowing when the air is not fit for human consumption.

Portland isn't even close to the worst from what I can see.

Some sites in/around Seattle were reporting over 300AQI

RE: Fine PNW smoked meats.

How high does the AQI need to be to smoke meats drying in the sun?

Really? I've been checking https://www.iqair.com/us/world-air-quality a few times a day and Portland hasn't been on top. At least Seattle is back down under 200 for the first time in a couple days.
