Every day we work to protect public health, improve neighborhood air quality, and reduce our region’s contribution to climate change.
Saturday and Sunday are expected to be cloudy with low winds, particularly during the evenings. The stagnant conditions may result in MODERATE air quality or worse in wood-burning areas in Tacoma. Visit pscleanair.gov/burnban for the latest air quality burn ban status.
