Wow. The air quality in Pennsylvania is fucked at the moment. The air smells dirty outside and it's very, very hazy. We're normally in the green here.

3 mile island

it's from the canadian wild fires.

For sure. Was jk about 3 mile island. Lived nearby and blamed it on everything

according to authorities, you are perfectly fine….

Yes. Sun looks weird and hazy outside 🤔

we get pretty sunsets though... it was really pretty 2 nights ago. last night was a bit too hazy i think.

Its from some wild fires in Canada. I'm in Lehigh Valley and it was a mess here with smoke last night

yep. the whole region is adversely affected.

Yea I would assume as much. Not too bad right now, just a little haze, but its a bit cool this morning so that may be affecting it somewhat. Prob will get worse as it warms up.

Consider moving. They should have stopped there 🤣

the air quality index is usually in the 30's or 40's.

And those wildfires were started by eco terrorists up here.

oh really? i don't know anything about them. i had just assumed they started naturally due to the drought.

I mean we haven’t let forests burn adding to the problem so isn’t that a good thing? 🙃

More controlled burns and clearing of forests would help mitigate these insane fires but the excuse will be money.

Humans trying to tell nature what to do always fails. How we manage water is worse. They’re so fucked in the south west but at least you can play golf year round 🙄

climate change will be blamed for it, no doubt

A few weeks ago we had the same problem in Colorado. Are these new fires or the same?

Canadian fires.

Blame Canada :)

The best. Jokes aside, that’s what’s likely happening. Toronto has ‘smoke’ as weather yesterday and today from fires in Ontario/Quebec. It will pass.

I know where it's coming from 😉 Yes, the whole region is fucked at the moment because of the wild fires in Canada. Normally, this part of PA would be 30's or 40's AQI. It would smell like summer outside with fresh, clean air. Now it smells like dirt and metal.

No doubt. Look forward to meeting man!

Blue skies here in Forest County

i can't see a sky.

I'm in Virginia just south and west of DC. Pretty bad here, I had caught the news, so wasn't horribly surprised, but I didn't expect it to smell... I don't know, chemical-like? In the past when I've gotten whiffs of distant forest fires, it's still smelled vaguely of campfires.

Also, I'm totally using it as an excuse for why I had a brief unplanned walk during my run this morning.

right. it's very dirty, almost metal-like smell. chemically is a good one too.

ive already decided that im going to ride my stationary bike today versus going outside to walk over lunch.

They’ll be blaming Canadians for this now

this is all @utxo's fault.

Yup I agree and now he can’t fly for the next 10years to compensate for the carbon emissions

I'm in Northern NJ. This morning's sunrise was the strangest I've ever seen.
