> For whatever reason, smoke just accumulates in the Sound and lingers in the city, even for fires up in Canada. I don't think this is true. You could see maps, and Seattle and the sound happened to be in the path of the smoke at times. But things were also bad east of the Cascades, in various parts of B.C. etc. The smoke doesn't have a particular tendency to linger in Seattle or Puget sound.
