Seattle reaches 'unhealthy' level as Air Quality Alert remains for western Washington
An Air Quality Alert will be in effect for most of western Washington this weekend due to wildfire smoke.
The air quality around the Puget Sound region is expected to be unhealthy for sensitive groups, but areas along the Cascade Valleys could experience diminished air quality due to wildfires.
Multiple agencies issued the Air Quality Alert, which is in effect until 11 a.m. Monday.
An Air Quality Alert was already in effect for Lewis, Skagit and Whatcom counties Friday morning, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).
