No grilling or barbecuing today

[Chris Allingham]

Nuclear winter in San Jose, 2:30 pm. Streetlights coming on, cars driving with headlights. Maybe we can smoke meat today by hanging it out to dry? #sparetheairday

The whole West needs rain and fewer Pine Beetles.

Right!

Seems like it's either feast or famine out that way with the weather.

Being so close to the Pacific Ocean, you would think the area would be saturated in thunderstorm-causing humidity - at least all areas west of the mountains.

ya I flew from LAS-OAK-ONT on Monday coming back home, the smoke haze was very weird from the air.

I'm in the Central Valley Chris, straight over the hills from you. It's been like for the most part for weeks. Haven't had an actual clear day since the beginning of August before all the fires broke out.

 

[Phil Perrin]

Stay safe out there guys!

 

[Rich Dahl]

Even here in the mountains of AZ. we are getting pretty strong smoke haze from the California fires. Nothing like your picture Chris but enough to make me stay inside as much as possible.

 

[John Saldana]

Yup, waking up to this every morning

Someone on the radio said Lewis & Clark witnessed orange skies like that. Given the Mediterranean-type climate of the area, I'm not surprised.

Like that here near Portland too. Gross. Reminds me of the oil fires during the war.
