Smoke Returns to Willamette Valley | Portland News

Wildfire smoke from the Austin, Narrows, and Grasshopper fires is rolling back into the Willamette Valley, dropping air quality to “very unhealthy” levels — especially in western Oregon and southwest Washington. Winds shifted east Monday night, bringing the smoke inland and warming the region. Officials urge limiting outdoor time as an advisory stays in effect until Wednesday noon. But relief is on the way: by Tuesday, winds will turn southwest, pushing smoke east, and midweek rain should clear the skies and reduce fire danger.
