This is a thing that seems to be more and more usual as we head deeper into the 21st Century.
A number of wildfires make the news each and every fire season now, and they've become so massive that smoke floats in from nearby states. Not so much today's, though. Here, at the height of the hot, we have two over on the eastern slopes, Lionshead and White River, near Madras and Bend, in that area. There's also one in far eastern Washington that may be contributing.

Wildfire smoke, making its way into the Willamette Valley. Again, in 2020.
The view of the mountain was ... well, just look:
The corn on the Rossi farm was looking good, however. So there was that.
