Air quality in Oregon seems to improve

Today, although many stations were unavailable until 4pm PDT, air quality in Oregon seems to have improved (AIRNow, top left) since yesterday. Smoke still can be seen over Oregon, Wyoming, Nebraska and Kansas (MODIS Aqua + current AQI, top right) and those orange codes that you can see over good part of California are mainly due to the ozone levels.

Below are the fire map reported by HMS at NOAA and the AOD map showing higher values mainly over Oregon and Kansas.
