After the Canada fire sent smoke all the way to Florida, I no longer have any idea where someone is when they talk about wildfire smoke

Close to New York. It was horrible here for a while. Apocalyptic amounts of haze. Yet people were still riding bikes, mowing lawns, running, and so on. Air quality index was over 300 for a bit.

Here in southeastern new england we mostly avoided the qorst of the smoke, though still it was pretty bad for a day or two

Couldn't imagine what NY was like!

Truely it was aweful. Visually we couldn't see the mountain range from 500ft away. Everyone stayed indoors with the AC on (we are lucky; we have a whole HEPA and several room HEPA units.

Conversation wise how was your 4th? We had a family gill out and a few beers and a bit of vape. Really relaxing. Had time to work on my project laptop (the Hackintosh; converting a Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen 7 to be able to triple boot). Did some admin; lowkey.

Friends in Maine managed to also avoid it completely!
