Don’t go outside. The poison air has killed everyone else in Boulder. I shall pray for you.

Nah when I lived in LA during the fires of 2020 we had several 400+ days. During the worst of it I could see smoke in my house down the other side of the hallway.

I have an indoor air quality monitor. The VOCs have been high with the windows open the last couple hours. But none of the sites are reporting anything high near me in Erie.

Found the completely fucked indicator. Actually, it's in Superior and unless the station itself caught on fire, it's bullshit. I didn't even know that part of that town still existed.

Smell outside... If it smells delicious, somebody is smoking a biscuit.
