OMG Wildfire Smoke?

Recommended Posts

Well everyone I talked to seems to be feeling the same.  Sore, lack of energy, stuffy, etc. 

 

This is pretty crappy right now, didn't want my kid outside much yesterday because of it.

Can we blow the smoke back like Spokane did a few years ago?  Get a giant fan party going?

The smell is unbearable here on Annacis Island, I hope this is from the New West fire and not the forest fires.

Most likely. 2020 just won't let up.

 

The smoke is being called "highly toxic" ....

 A "devastating fire" is still burning at New Westminster’s award-winning Westminster Pier Park and could be burning for days, according to the local fire department.

 

"This smoke is highly toxic, so you don’t want to be breathing it in,” New Westminster fire chief Tim Armstrong told CTV News so he is advising residents to keep their windows closed. The pier's creosote-covered pilings are burning.

All the more reason why the original thread title should have been left alone...

They found the guy that set the fire, he is out already, hopefully doesn’t set any more fires!
