🌬🚫According to U.S. government data, wildfires in Oregon and Washington are blanketing much of the Pacific Northwest with smoke, affecting residents in Seattle, Portland, and other parts of the two states with the worst air pollution.

Last week, the sky was brown, and the air was difficult to breathe in Seattle, home to some 4 million people. "It has been making me dizzy," said resident Joe Dinkins, as quoted by Reuters.

According to the federal airnow.gov website, the 10 U.S. locations with the worst air quality were all in Washington or Oregon, led by Oakridge, Oregon, where the air quality index was in the hazardous category at 487. The air in Seattle and Portland were considered very unhealthy, with an air quality index of 207 and 204, respectively.

Susan Woodward, the spokesperson for the Washington State Department of Ecology, stressed that to have poor air quality from wildfire smoke as late in the year as October is unprecedented in Washington.
