@music-by-margaruine Wildfire smoke! A bunch of pine trees that have been drying for years caught fire from a lightning strike. If there isn’t lots of rain, it’ll burn until it snows
Man, the worst I've been in is about ~580 (BC, Canada.) Awful thing to experience.
In this day and age, I have to recommend blowing some cash on a high end air purifier. I went with a Coway airmega and holy smokes is it powerful. It's pretty overkill for the space I have, so I essentially have fresh cycled air every minute and a half. When it kicks into overdrive you feel a pressure change in the house lol
@ichomancer Defo gonna look into getting one of those. I have an air purifier but it’s a pretty standard one. Idk if she can keep up with these wildfires that are practically annual now
I recommend everyone in wildfire-affected areas, or heavily polluted industrial zones invest in at least one HEPA Air Purifier. If funds are low, or you are feeling DIY, you can also build a Corsi-Rosenthal style box :-]
it took a while but the smoke is finally trickling into my corner of PA. Minnesota/Wisconsin/Michigan look absolutely screwed on the AQI map though holy shit. stay safe!!!!
Sorry it’s actually 522 holy cow
oh no!!! stay safe!
it's 45 over here in Macau and we've had to put up with an entire week of shade and rain... wtf are they putting in your air lmfao

I thought I escaped the yearly smoke after fleeing the West, nope! Just in the "smellable" area, i.imgur.com/9U2R9iq.jpeg
@oscarspage “smellable” is funny asf I’ve never seen that before omg the stink zone

The 2023 wildfires gave me bronchitis and now it’s even worse where I am… classic!
