There are roughly 13,000 acres on fire within 20 miles of me (and about 10 million other people). Fortunately since I have asthma we already have 2 air purifiers that are running full blast.

Probably the scariest part of how toxic the air is right now is that it looks absolutely clear outside. Without checking the weather I would have never known it was that bad.

I do have one thankfully, but weirdly I’ve been mostly okay! I credit the air purifiers and not stepping a single foot outside today.
