Burn ban under way: A burn ban is in place in Snohomish County as of Tuesday afternoon, due to stagnant weather and rising air pollution. No outdoor fires are allowed, and most indoor burning is banned unless the home meets certain exemptions. People who are sensitive to pollution should limit their time outdoors until the ban is lifted.
