I feel for all you people who are smoked out over there.

I remember a wildfire in W.Va. a couple decades ago. The smoke traveled all the way up to our area and I found it nauseating and disgusting and it irritated my nose.

Probably 1/50th as bad as Cali right now.
Lol it’s not great. I took a 4.5 mile hike and 21 mile bike ride yesterday... probably not the wisest of ideas.

I mowed the front yard while wearing a vented N95 mask that was made for construction-type work.
It wasn't bad at all, but our temps are very mild today (mid 60s).

My only complaint is that it fits *really* snug, but I'm sure that's by design.

Getting pretty fucking smoky up here in BC, and I'm a fair ways from the border even. Maxed out the health risk rating. Certainly glad not to be running for my life and losing my home and all my possessions or burning to a toasty crisp like the folks in the States though. What is it with y'all damn yankees and lighting shit on fire. I heard some morons set one off with a pyrotechnic display for a gender reveal. Notwithstanding how bizarre and cringeworthy I find those things to begin with, I'm sure some confetti would have sufficed and would have been less likely to result in burning down half the state.

Most of them were started by dry lightning.

It seems like there is less smoke up high here, it's a little brighter, but still "very unhealthy" at ground level.
Jesus fucking christ I hope it’s at least a little better here this morning. I know it’s practically ground zero but can a dude catch a break?
I sit around my sciatica hurts more, like way more. I’m out working on the house yesterday with a fabric mask on, seems to help, and my daughter calls me with an update on baby. She asks me if i’m actually working outside because I’ll probably be shaving years off my life. I said i gotta git r done and dont worry about me.

This is today's "improvement". At least it doesn't say hide in the house this time. We are supposed to be good on Wednesday, I hope.
