| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Multiple large wildfires in Washington, Oregon, and surrounding states produced copious quantities of dense smoke throughout the month of September. Due to poor ventilation and a gradual return to southwest winds, there were increasing amounts of wildfire smoke to Washington. The smoke from these fires severely degraded air quality across much of eastern Washington in mid-September. Numerous communities, especially in the Spokane area, suffered long periods of very unhealthy to hazardous air quality. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | An air quality sensor in Pullman recorded unhealthy air quality from September 12th through September 19th. It spiked to continuous hazardous conditions on September 13th through 15th. The arrival of a cold front on September 19th brought showers and westerly winds which ventilated the area. |
