In New Jersey I have throat irratation and my eyes are affected by it.

The past four days we have had pretty heavy rain. There has been lots of thunder and lightning. So I had not noticed the smoke, UNTIL today. Looked at the houses across the street and you can see the haze. 

Can not believe the wild fires are still burning.

If you’d just take up smoking the wildfire smoke wouldn’t affect you at all.  ; )

You’re welcome and glad I could help.

I can't help but wonder if this was arson. Some Canadians are also

thinking this.

I can feel your pain---I live in WA state and last year, it was horrendous--- for many days in Oct. the skies were a dirty yellow. We stayed inside and  wore masks outside. And it was hot and sticky!! also noticed how many dogs were still being walked--I know, I know---dogs gotta poop --but still, isn't good for any form of life----I did find out that my portable A/C does filter the smoke particles--that was a pleasant surprise.

@sunshine45   While unhealthy that's a beautiful photo.  I just ran home real quick from work for my lunchtime and yeah, while we can't smell it here in SE MD I see that it is a code red.  I'm not at the beach but inland...looks more ominous at the coast.

The AQI in Central Pa today is 157. Worse than yesterday. Wondering why the hazzines appears better but the numbers are higher?

There's an air quality alert in Eastern Iowa too.  I can usually see for miles in this area...not lately. You see it, smell it, your eyes water & your lungs feel scratchy.  What a mess!

I learned that the fires in Canada were deliberately set.  Set all at one time.  Caught the guy resjponsible too.
