The Smoke Has Arrived
If you noticed a reddish/pinkish tinge around the Sun this evening it's because smoke from the western forest fires has arrived...

Re: The Smoke Has Arrived
I’ve been smelling it too. I have a bad feeling this is the new normal.

Re: The Smoke Has Arrived
With the cooler weather this morning we have our bedroom windows open. I just came upstairs and thought I smelled smoke and got worried. Couldn't find anything. I think this explains it!
