It's all too familiar. I think the worst part is the scars of the Montecito mudslide. It forever changed how I viewed fires. Even once the fires are out, you can't fully account for the structural shifts. Now every fire has me on edge to some extent, although not being on the mountain side of my town helps my personal anxiety about it.

It's still half-foggy, half-smokey outside.
The temperatures have dropped a fair amount, too.
The early "sunset" reminded me that cuddle weather is soon approaching.
It's going to be a very difficult few months š

Oregon wildfires making it look straight apocalyptic

Yeah. I've been wide awake for hours. I got to go to work in two hours
My sister lives in Utah. The pics she's sent me are absolutely nuts. I think I prefer the orange of SF to the blood red skies in Utah.
woke up wide awake about 3 hours earlier than usual. My throat is raw. I think air quality got worse, but the sky isn't as bad. It's peach-ish, I guess.
I'd urge anyone out there to avoid time outside as much as possible when the AQI is bad, I'm sure they've already heard that. Take it from someone who developed asthma after the Thomas Fires burned a ton of the city next door down, you don't want to be outside more than necessary if the smoke is that dense. Sneaks up on you, ended up short of breath a month after the fires thinking I was having panic attacks when it turns out being outside (no choice due to work conditions) for even short spans of time can slowly chip away at your lung capacity with chronic exposure.
Any idea what the bar is for not going outside? It's 160 in my neighborhood now.
I'd say anything about 80 is in the "it's getting bad out there..." territory, and over 100 is "stay in". 160 is already in the red :/
EDIT: Checking Purple Air right now, and NO ONE in NorCal should be going out right now :/ It's pretty much awful and toxic across the board (unless you border Nevada). Or the west side of Oregon/Washington, for that matter :/
If it's in the red just don't, shut all windows and stick indoors. I mean a lot of people will have no choice and the way my doctor spun it, just gotta remember that anything that gets into your lungs will likely be there for quite some time, so even small exposures are basically just building on each other .
I was outside for only a few moments yesterday where apparently the air wasn't considered that bad, and was dumb and didn't stick a mask on (one of those "only going to be a few minutes..." things :/) I was coughing pretty badly last night and didn't feel good, and I'm guessing it was due to that. Don't risk it, and try to keep pets in too. I make sure my dog pees quickly and runs back in.
Surprised this hadn't been shared. It's from the Enchanted Forest Theme Park south of Portland.
Holy shit this looks like a game made in doom 64's engine. Wtf? This is so unreal.
God that is fucking insane. I remember the 2004 san diego fires and thought that was insane..but this overwhelms that by a large margin. I'm curious, i've been trying to look for info but can't find anything.. what happens to the people that had the gender reveal party that caused this fire??
It's really not "this" fire. That was one fire of MANY MANY fires going on at the same time, all along the entire west coast. Oregon is also getting hit bad right now, too. I'm sure this is the worst recorded fire year in history, so it's particularly bad from just everything.
It's not just the west coast effected...
