Buckle up for rounds of wildfire smoke this weekend. Even though it'll be warm, the haze could be uncomfortable and even dangerous for some people. FOX13
According to Puget Sound Clean Air Agency, the "hotspots" will be over Darrington, U.S.-2 and SR 530 in Skagit and Snohomish Counties.
Keep in mind, fire danger is super elevated around the Cascades. A Red Flag Warning remains in place for the Cascades Saturday and Sunday. Overnight lows will cool to the mid 40s to low 50s. Highs on Saturday will soar to the upper 70s and low 80s. If you are considering going to the Mariners, Huskies or Seahawks games this weekend, I'd check air quality levels before going and making the best decision for your health. Senior citizens, kids and pregnant people will be extra vulnerable to the smoke. Health officials encourage people to limit exposure to the smoke and stay indoors with clean, cool air. Bringing an N95 mask could be a good idea.
Temperatures drop to the upper 60s and low 70s for the rest of the week. While there could occasionally be smoke next week, it shouldn't be as bad as this weekend. Isolated showers could return Friday!Follow me on Twitter @abbyacone, Instagram @abbyaconewx, TikTok @abbyaconetv and Facebook that I have read and agree
