Just drove back home to the city from Ballarat. The smoke is absolutely disgusting there. Got into my apartment and promptly spewed my guts out. Not sure if it's the smoke or something I had.

Melbourne has got a tinge of smoke too now.

Thankyou for warning. Cooking had covered it so far. Doors all taped up now!

I just cracked open a window in my CBD apartment. The smoke is here now too!

Yep i was driving with it as it slowly got clearer but still a haze through the city. Ballarat itself though suuuuuuuuuucks! It was enough to hurt your eyes.
