Finally. I hope this is the end of our summer of in the 90's every day. And, just for good measure, I washed my car today. :codger: The last time I washed it, it rained. Here's hoping my car washing will bring the rain again. We need it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 The fires are so bad and numerous out here that when we walk outside we get pelted by ash coming down. I'm not joking. And the smoke is so thick. It's awful, and being made worse by high winds. I understand that the fires are raging in Canada and Montana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to breathe outside because there are a lot of particles in the air that make you sneeze and cough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend that lives in Bend, Oregon and she's been posting pics on Facebook of the sky and how bad it is. My nephew also lives there out there. He's really been suffering a lot with his sinuses. Nasal irrigation with saline solution has been helping him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between the fires on the west coast, floods in the south and Irma coming from the east, I'm waiting for a polar bear invasion to come from the north.

Lorraine Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 The moon through the smoke from fires, taken in Astoria, Oregon. Yes, that's about what it looks like. And the sun doesn't look much different. Air quality today is 215. Much better than yesterday when it was close to 300. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
On TheRoad To Adventure Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 17 Celsius (62 Fahrenheit) and raining. The rain is welcome here, but the Interior of BC needs it more. There are now 160 fires burning in the province, some of them quite large. Lots of people have lost their homes. This is the worst wildfire season in history for us, and I understand there are also many fires in Montana. Last month we were in Oregon and it was so smoky there too. We need lots of rain everywhere. Sadly, the places where the hurricanes are are getting the rain and they don't need it! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only a hundred or so miles southeast from you. It's awful to lose your home and everything you own by fire. You can replace furniture and clothing and other stuff, but there are many items that cannot be replaced. I feel bad for the forest animals too who lose their homes and have to wander and forage and flee to some type of safety if they can. We do need rain desperately. Aside from some drops here and there, nothing of any consequence for over two months now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly a lot more pleasant, safe & and one hell of a lot less stressfull! We did get a "hurrricane" here once in 1987 but it wasn't really a proper hurricane. It was a temperate-latitude low pressure system with fronts and several discrete air masses, albeit an exceptionally violent one with hurricane-type force winds, sustained over coastal areas for several hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
