May not of helped a lot with the 400+ wildfires, but it will help! :-D :-D :-D

Even the sky is blue, and there is a round yellow thing in the sky. Haven't seen that for a while.

The ground is dark brown too, not that light brown :-0

Researching:
Oxfordshire, Devon, Somerset, Gloucestershire etc.

I agree with RMS ........... you can keep the lightening!!!


Daughter lives in Halifax .............. and they got the smoke over the weekend.

she was not impressed!!!


Yesterday's smoke here was apparently from "the northern half of Vancouver Island and elsewhere"???

I think "elsewhere" was from below the line.


BTW ............ I noticed Global TV had the Humidex Index for the Lower Mainland on last night's weather forecast ............. they haven't so far done Humidex for us???
