The Puget Sound Clean Air Agency has ended burn bans for King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties.

“An increase in wind speeds is expected this evening and possible precipitation later in the day. Pollution is not likely to build to levels that are unhealthy for sensitive groups and clearing is expected once a front comes in and wind speeds increase,” says the Clean Air Agency.
