Parts – and possibly all – of the Olympic region could see high-level smoke overhead in the coming days, but where and when some of that smoke descends into our neighborhoods is unclear. Given the geography of ORCAA’s jurisdiction – waterways on three sides, and a massive mountain range in the center – the upcoming variable surface winds are likely to shift and move that wildfire smoke in unpredictable ways. ORCAA staff will monitor the situation continually and report updated news as it develops. But residents can also keep an eye on ORCAA’s air monitoring network and plan their activities on those real-time readings. Should local air quality monitors show elevated PM pollution levels, anyone with breathing difficulties or existing cardiovascular issues should stay indoors when possible and take additional precautions as warranted. Anyone experiencing breathing difficulties should consult with their health care providers.
