SMOKE!!! Smoke from wildfires is so thick here today that folks are wearing masks. We were at Wally World and
their parking lot lights were flickering on and off at 4 in the afternoon.
It burns the eyes and you can smell it.

Hope things settle down soon. I guess they'll have to get those fires out first. I think that may be worse than hurricanes. Don't know but I do know hurricanes are bad. I've rode a few of them out.

It is predicted to get very smoky even down here. We had it a week or more ago, but supposed to get it again, even worse!

Beautiful pic. Thanks for sharing.
Our entire state had an air quality advisory today, thanks to all the fires in Canada right now.

Thanks, thought that might be the case. Not too many antelope here in eastern Washington State.
