The two main weather stories today will be better air quality from less smoke and cooler daytime temperatures. A cool front yesterday and overnight cleaned out some of the smoke with highs in the 60s and lower 70s. Overnight we'll see lows fall down towards the lower 40s and upper 30s.
Smoke will likely become thick again on Friday.
