Albertan here. I have a coworker with holes in his brain who tells me that it's the leftists starting all of these fires to further the climate change agenda. Climate change, he claims, being a natural Earth process, which we are powerless to counteract meaninfgully and are not responsible in any way for causing, so he says, which justifies, in his tiny mind, the continuation of unabated fossil fuel discovery and usage. And in the same breath I'm also informed that trans people shouldn't be allowed to exist, as they are somehow responsible for everything going wrong with society these days. And also that Ukraine and Russia should just talk it out, as it's Ukraine's fault for the war somehow.

Basically what I'm saying is, feel free to invade, so that he can volunteer to "talk it out" between our two sides.

Because I clearly drove out hauling my 30+ foot Airstream in my coal-rolling lifted Ford 150 and ran the generator the whole 24 hours I was at the campground while laughing about Nova Scotia burning to the ground.

It is natural, its just that we're totally loving things up by making it happen like 50,000 times faster than if it was doing in on its own.

On a few occasions, I've argued with people who say "the exhaust coming out of your (modern) car's tailpipe is cleaner than when it goes in", so I tell them to park their car in a garage, close all the doors and windows, start the car, and settle in to a chair with a book.

Their response was always "OMG I WOULD DIE"

But uhhhhhh, if its cleaner coming out than going in, you should be fine right?

It doesn't qualify as a vacation if you don't have high speed internet access.

Oh that might be tolerable. I don't know why'd you be laughing about the fire, seems kind of cruel.

edit: I get the 30+ foot airstream but the act of hauling it would be a hassle. No thank you.

The only forecast I’ve seen past a couple days is this for eastern PA from airnow.gov:

Nolan posted:

Over the coming days, expect the air quality to continue to improve in the near term as the overall weather continues to change from the one that impacted our weather over the past few days. The area of low pressure, that began to back in over eastern Canada on Thursday, will finally move out over the next few days as a new storm system builds in from the Great Lakes region. The movement of this storm system near our area will allow all of the smoke to retreat and allow the air quality (PM 2.5, primarily) to improve. However, we could see ozone rise in advance of the frontal passage, as a result of increased sunshine allowing the photochemistry necessary for ozone production to occur. The storm system will press through our area in the late Monday - early Tuesday time frame. As it pushes through, expect some much need rain to provide some much needed water to some very dry yards. After an initial bump down, expect temperatures to rebound in the mid 80s by week's end as more of a zonal wind flow sets up over the area. Overall, air quality levels could still remain elevated over the weekend. The passage of the front though on Monday into Tuesday will provide some brief relief to air quality levels. Air quality conditions will likely rise by week's end (not as high as what we are currently experiencing, thankfully!) as warmer temperatures move in. --Nolan

So probably improving early next week, but maybe still crappy who knows
