Moderate conditions, fires still burn in northwest

Moderate fine particle conditions in the midwest U.S. today according to AIRNow -- nothing dramatic, just summer time haze. Smoke continued in Idaho and Montana (MODIS image, right). Though the smoke plumes are still quite large, they are smaller than at other times this summer. Note there also a small plume from a fire in northern Washington.
