I am generally a pretty hopeful person but days like today, the gloom settles on me quite strong.
Since that is extrapolated and off the 500 scale maybe they need sometime beyond HAZARDOUS. Maybe > 1000 should be YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE level.
Wonder if the smoke settles into Iowa next week when we get cooler temps? Could be disastrous for Ragbrai if it’s anything like Minnesota
Yeah, timing looks to be bad. Maybe it will clear some, but as my local weather dude follow notes, it's really hard to forecast future smoke tracks.
Last year it was a month earlier for the bad bad air hit we took. Remember having to put a N95 on to go photograph some loons in June last summer.
I just got straight up poured on out of nowhere. Solid half and hour or so of rain.
I'm guessing there were a lot of cars sitting in parking lots with their windows cracked open to deal with the heat.
*cracked as in being down a bit to vent air not actually cracked
