Stepped outside today and the smoke from the forest fires is quite noticeable here in Southern Illinois. And we're only about halfway up on the scale here: https://firesmoke.ca/forecasts/current/

Some people overlook when one area suffers another excels. Here in the dust bowl were are no longer in a drought (for now) and things have grown well and ive seen this go in 10 year cycles which is how the dust bowl got so populated in such a short time in the early 1900-s. The farmers hit the area in an extremely wet time period only to find out it was cyclic.
STOP POTATO HATE!

I Live in N.E. Tennessee. The smoke is here. The news has been reporting it for a few days now. I didn't think it would come this far south. I was wrong. It hasn't really affected us yet but the nearby mountains are really hazy.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Yeah - it was pretty damn bad here 40 miles NW of Detroit - it got progressively worse into the evening here. at around 7:30 last night, the air index was at 184. In my 65 years, I've never seen sh*t like this before. The air had an acrid, toxic smell to it as well. Today, we woke to a pretty dense fog, but that cleared. Much clearer today, but still the smoky haze & some of the smell, but not as bad. We are living in some strange times.

Kinda crazy, but so much smoke layers in the air means you can aim regular cameras at the Sun and take pictures of ‘sunspots’ https://www.solarham.net/

My travels today throughout PA, from Red Lion to Scranton- there is a ton of this smoke $hit in the air. Mountain tops covered, it looks foggy. Its definitely affecting my breathing, it sucks! "im in my mid 70's and i've never seen smoke in the air like this. i live a little south of indy and for the past 2 days everything smells like burning wood and the sky looks like a light fog all the time." looks like this on I-80, exit 78, [north of Coder] for the last couple of days, and being in the same age group, i have never seen it like this. [except the time i set the woods on fire playing with my army men and a can of lighter fluid as a "flame thrower". i got my a$$ beat big time for that stunt. : . luckily, the fire department was close, and put the fire out quickly. i never played with my army men after that "life lesson" was taught to me.
