We haven't had that spirit here since 1969.

Not to worry, the fires will be stopped once they run into the wastelands that already burned to ashes last year.

no, it's at ~400 right now, which means if it gets ~100 points worse it starts to be the same as perfect air

With all the fires really smoking the poo poo out of major population centers in the last couple of years, I wonder if there's already been any uptick in lung cancer/disease related deaths that can be tied back to smoke inhalation. We already know for sure that living in an area with pollution smog will cause huge upticks.

If you want to move somewhere cheap with all 4 seasons, good outdoor recreation, and very little exposure to immediate climate devastation West Virginia has everything that the Midwest has and more.

There are only like 3 good places to live in the state but that's more than Indiana (zero), Ohio (zero), Michigan (one), Iowa (zero), Wisconsin (zero), and Minnesota (two). Plus you have hills and stuff instead of just boring flat land.

There are some pretty decent places in Michigan, not that I'm really an expert. Not everyone needs to live in a fun college town with 600 brew pubs (or whatever the hell the equivalent of that is in West Virginia).

no they’re all bad. every one of them is a small town of like 50,000 boring blank people beside 2 highways.

At least you can go whitewater rafting and climbing in WV.

how quickly do you think lung cancer spreads? i mean in the future there's going to be people dead from the smoke but it's not going to be something you can tease out from the other lung stuff going around

I used to work for a cancer research center and it was pretty fascinating the amount of stuff they were able to work through on public health data tied back to zipcodes and such.

I probably shouldn't have mentioned cancer because yeah that would be in a few more years. Its more like COPD, asthma, etc right now.

yeah cancers are a particular tricky thing and is more "long-term exposure" and probably cumulative. smoking one cig isnt going to give you lung cancer (although entirely possible it could, just stupidly small and it would be hard to point to 40 years later going "ah my lung cancer was from that cig i smoked when i was 15") but doing pack a day for 30 years gives a very high probability. likewise smog, pollution, etc is similar. it is easily traced to astma and other respiratory distress over time but again just visitting a smogged city for a week isnt going to give you asthma or cancer, but living it for decades, especially being born into it, can, and at a high probability. likewise it'd be pretty hard to point to an wildfire event 5-40 years ago saying "yes this is why you have asthma / lung cancer" but certainly will exasperbate problems and will prob induce some damage

along with covid shredding lungs it'd be a fun wombo combo :toot:

to be completely fair, outside the insane fires we're seeing now, Oregon in general is a great place to live as we have great water, lots of local produce and rain a good part of the year. Maybe I'm being optimistic with thinking wildfires will die down after a good portion of the land is already burned but hey let me grab on to something to justify still living here, I need this
