Have you seen smoke from the California wildfires in your neck of the woods?

We saw it here in NYC yesterday, and it was also visible in Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and several other eastern states.

  • Yes, but I'm not far from it here in the Sacramento Valley. We've had the worst of it. I'd been wearing a mask when going outside the past several days.

    Hello there Stu Bee
    Living in the bay area, Yes. We have been dealing with horrible air quality. Most days there has been a blanket of smoke covering the entire area. I have taken to wearing a dust mask when I work outside.
    We did get a little rain here this morning so it feels a bit cleaner.

    That's not surprising since you're in Cali, but I read that the smoke compromised air quality in Philadelphia yesterday.

    Hey Stu Bee
    I am not surprised. This year it seems we have been in a constant state of burning, we are approaching 2,000.000 acres of scorched land.
    I worry about fire breaking out in the area I live, it is very wooded.

    I'm a bit ESE of the fire so I've been seeing it for 12 straight days now.
