Air quality in the Seattle area has been terrible...I hate "fire season"! Can't wait for a good soaking rain!

I'd happily lend you some of ours. We've nothing but rain for the third year in a row. But at least there are no fires, indeed.

Cheers from Australia.

It's not good that we now seem to have an official fire season here in the PNW. There's been more than a few times that we have had to go somewhere else to escape smoke on the weekends so my DH can breathe.

This looks like a Wolves in the Throne Room album cover

The PNW was even better pre-2017 when we didn't have a "fire season."

I took a similar pic in Glacier back in 2020. It's a cool effect in photos, but I would have loved to have done the Highline Trail in clear conditions

Directed by David Lynch in green text would fit perfectly on this picture.

Born and raised 1989 and I too recognize 2017 as the year the smoke descended.

I was aware of wildfires and knew of them occurring in the region but we never had summers where smoke and ash was a part of our lives until recently.

Was just here, was more clear than this but definitely had haze hanging around a good part of the day.

The smell of these fires is both sad and amazing at the same time

That might be the best potential ambient black metal album cover i've ever seen!

Unfortunately we're in for a delayed winter if I'm reading long range forecast right. I'm down in bend and for a minute our fire died down. Now it's kicking back up.... Really hoping something happens. That cedar Creek fire is burning near some of the prettiest lakes/forests we have

this is so sad. I hope the rain comes soon.

That's great to hear, mate!

Yeah, we seem to be getting a bit more rain to be on the safe side...There's not a patch of earth that's not soggy on the whole NSW coast.
