We are getting smoke now from Oregon and eastern Washington. We just lost the smoke from Canada. We can't win. At least they aren't that close to us like @Stephen T. ..................crossing fingers :cautious:
We could use some rain here also. Don't think it's gonna happen any time soon tho.

We have about 5 miles of lake between us and the fire, so I doubt it will jump that! The smoke is another story, at 90 degrees, with visibility under 1000', it's just plain ICKY outside! The Pacific Northwest has certainly got it's share of the fires and smokey conditions. The weather is predicted to be hot and dry for the next week, so things are unlikely to change soon.

Yep we are stuck in the muck! Time to take a vacation away from here but not to Texas, yikes they truly have it bad too.
Fire or floods, don't want either one so guess I'll just be grateful we are only getting smoke.

69°F today. You can tell we're exiting Summer now. Cooler days, getting dark earlier. Halloween stuff in stores. Christmas stuff will be in stores by the end of September.


We had smokey white skies today thanks to Canada wildfires. Air quality was poor.

85 for today which is not normal for us. Blue skies and no smoke but the smoke is coming back in a couple days they say. Hate the smoke! Usually rain and cooler starting in Sept. I'll take this heat for now as I know soon enough we will be drenched to the core!

Going to about 75 today and 80's and 90's for rest of the week. I think we are getting someone else's weather cause normally nights are cool by September but it was so beautiful last night I sat till after 1am by the pond and just watched the fish swim and the Hornwort churn in the water. It was so smokey last night the moon was red.

Hot and getting hotter during this week. Should be around 86 today. I watered my life away yesterday in preparation for this heat wave that never ends. The smoke is back here also. High fire danger reported.
