Yikes! Have they given an air quality alert for you? Must be playing havoc with those with asthma, etc.

I generally don't pay attention to air quality advisories mainly because I am not affected by it not to mention I spent 14 summers fighting fires so this is nothing new to me

The fires in B. C. are even choking us out here in cowtown. Last night was the worst I've experienced. Even reduced visibility. Air Quality was expected to drop to 5 out of 10.

A few years back we had a lot of smoke coming from forest fires in Siberia. Amazing how far smoke can travel.
