Anyone else dealing with wildfire smoke?

I haven't ventured outside but once today because the air quality is so shitty here in Northern WA. It's an asthma-inducing bloodbath out there.

I hope everyone is staying safe.

I hadn't kept up with the wildfires that much here, but it has been kind of smokey the last couple weeks. So I checked and we have a few (6 or 7 I think) wildfires burning so far. It's not as bad as last year was though.

I'm glad it's not as bad as last year for you.

I know that my lungs aren't happy AT ALL. But I have the ability to deal with it, thankfully.

[Kaderin Triste]

I don't know how accurate the info I found was, but last year supposedly was our worst fire season since 1910. It had been so bad that there was ash falling for a couple days and most days, the smoke made it look like there was mist or fog even just blocks away. (And that wasn't even in the areas really close to the fires.) This year is mild compared to that.

Hopefully the fires out in WA can be contained and put out soon so you can breathe better soon!

Many thanks! I hope it rains soon and puts a damper on the burning as well.

[Kaderin Triste]

Yes! Rain would be great for slowing down (and hopefully stopping!) those pesky fires!

It's pretty much burning all down the west coast right now. I could actually see some of the mountains today, and decided to "shower" the garden because buildups of dirt or ash and such can affect the sun getting to them.

I'm in central WA and my air is literally hazardous.

air quality is so bad :|

I got away from the fires in CA only to run into dust storms and thunderstorms in AZ...

[KittyBeary]

Yup. Though it seems to be not as bad here anymore? I was out tonight and I didn't notice it like I have been the past few weeks. o_O

[Glitch]

It’s still smoky in Idaho! But this is pretty normal. Where in northern wa are you?

[Awen Moonshine]

OMG that sounds so awful! We don't get anything like that where I am in the UK. I hope you are all staying safe <3

I'll give you some of the East Coast rain, it has rained about 20 of the past 30 days.

[Quiet Man Cometh]

Could use some rain here! State of emergency in the province declared today.

At least a bit of blue to the sky, and the sun wasn't a viewable shade of dire orange.

OH, it's crazy in California!!!
Smokey air for a week haha, can't even see the sun.

[KittyBeary]

Rain would be so nice especially here in California! ;u;
