has burned 1,938 acres of forest, and the smog now hovers above Seattle. Even though the haze might look ominous, according to the Environmental Protection Agency it might not be all that dangerous.
While an AQI ranking of over 50 is not a “good” air quality ranking, the EPA says the smoke is really only a concern for unusually sensitive individuals who suffer from respiratory conditions. Additionally, this smoke is fairly high up meaning the surface air quality is still decent in most parts of Seattle.
