Default Ashfall

GREAT Frippin' LAST DAYS OF POMPEII!!

Ashfall on the garden.

Funny yellow light outdoors.

Smoke in the air.

Welcome to Forest Fire Season in the Pacific Northwest.

We're all here just fucking wishing that it would rain. A lot.

*cough * cough*

Yup, woke up to a nice coating on my car this morning.

I'm tempted to wash it, but this is likely to continue for a while so what's the point.

You still got it goin' on up there?

Or, is it starting up again for you?

Didn't you get a temporary reprieve?

We've been dealing with smoke a while, now. The ashfall is a new aspect.

Thursday, they are promising rain. Dunno how much. I hope it comes to pass.

I think I feel like the way bees do when they get smoked by the bee keeper.

Funny....I kinda figured that was the normal state of events for you. Smoked.

We did get a reprieve, but that's over. There's one fire up north that's the size of Delaware. I've a friend in forest fire services calling this a pretty special year. Orange sun, orange moon. Yesterday was red or no sun.

I prefer my smoke filtered through a carbureted water chamber!

Ugh.

Still no rain here. At least the wind shifted.

Not bad enough here for ashfall, but it has been really hazy from smoke for days. Enough to cause some major temperature lag – morning-cool well into the afternoon, then staying noon-hot until after sundown. Nice orange moon too. Starting to clear up this weekend.
