In 2020 the Portland Metro hit nearly 400. AQI hit black in some areas. But this is still horrible.

We should already have several inches of rain by now, too. I want autumn back.

God, that’s what it was like in summer 2020. Crossing my fingers today is the last day of this.

All the way through the entire Portland Metro, too. It’s huge. In my area it got to 176 AQI and in Portland proper, some places were well over 200. I hope the upcoming rain helps clear up our PNW skies and give the firefighters (and our lungs) some relief.
