While we were traveling in September and early October, we read reports of continuing smoke in metro Seattle coming from the forest fires east of here. One featured in the news was around Route 2 and the town of Skykomish. We have been back for a week, and the smoke continues. I posted a couple days ago about the intensity of the smoke, but it was clearing in the days since. Today, the smoke has returned. In the morning hours, there is a distinct haze and color cast in the air, visibility has dropped dramatically from the norm, and there is a scent of woodsmoke in the air.
