definitely lots of smoke out there. I was out at 6am with my son mowing our lawn (with my new scythe - ask and I will tell you all about it if you'd like!) and it was think and stinky out there - I thought someone had a house fire or something. Today is the one day per week I go into work late, so I didn't ride in until 1:30, but smoke was still prevalent and getting worse I think. We have a 'Red' ozone air quality alert right now and I think it is well over 151. They are predicting it for the overnight and tomorrow as well. I was fine biking in today, so I guess it will be OK tonight and tomorrow as well - maybe...hopefully
