Smokey City

Smoke from surrounding wildfires has blown into our city today, making the air quality truly icky.

Wow! You know, Albuquerque looks pretty much the same, and the news anchors say it's coming in from the west coast.

Nicely captured!

A very heavy smoke haze, wild fires are pretty scary :)

[Iris]

yup, looks the same around here

[Barb Tatum]

I will be glad when fire season is over - it's really bad this year. It smelled like a campfire inside my house yesterday! Better today.

@barbtatum Me too, Barb. Our firefighters, here, have had such a horrible time. And people losing their homes. It's just awful.
@irisn Iris, it's awful, isn't it?
@hermann Sally, yes. They are so scary.
@cejaanderson Sorry about that, Jane! It's a particularly bad season.

[Babs]

Wow looks scary. I hope this isn't a sign of how our summer is going to be here in Australia. Had a couple of fires this winter so far as well as controlled burns

I like the horizontal layers, gradually getting lighter. Hope all is well with you!

[Erika]

@onewing I hope so, too, Babs. It's been just awful here.
@vstap Thank you. We're all okay. All clear this morning!

No other word but "icky" will do here, I agree. But you did get a nicely composed capture.
