We have fires all around us and have had for three weeks. They just about have the three big ones contained if the wind doesn't start again. Smoke has been terrible and the hospitals report over an 80% increase of people with breathing problems. Some days I couldn't see across the intersection to see what color the light was. I wear one of the dist type masks but that can't begin to keep out all of the tiny particles in this air. Boy, will I ever be happy when this is over and the smoke finally clears out. I have a sore throat and have had for two weeks and can hardly talk at times from having to get out in this crap.
