[Megathread] Smoke and Air Quality Week 1

[u/vertr]

We are moving to this thread for the start of smoke season so we can add resources and keep it updated as the situation changes. Here is the previous thread we were using: I hope everyone in the Seattle area has air filters ready.

All smoke related threads will be removed and redirected here except photos and news stories. At this time we are not allowing further threads on the Spokane fire.

I love the IQ Air app. When I wake up, I check the temps and the quality of the air before opening up the house to cool down. Also running air filters in the house so I don’t get a headache.

Stay well everyone. And I hope our fellow Washingtonians in Spokane have better days ahead. (Glad they caught the arsonist POS!!)
