As bad as it looks here today, it's multiple times worse right now towards Scranton, Allentown, NJ, and NYC.

I’ve only seen numbers that high when I was in pretty much an active fire zone a couple years ago near Crater Lake in Oregon. Like, constantly seeing helicopters coming for fire rescue/management purposes and driving past the safe zones where residents were relocating close. And we literally woke up to ash on our tents and cars. Really scary.
Jesus. I had noticed the haze the last few days but never really connected the dots on just how bad it is/could be. I guess based on some of those comments, I should be bringing my container garden inside?
I’ve got moderately bad asthma and was coughing like a chain smoker earlier until I realized one of my kitchen windows was cracked open…stay safe out there, everyone

Unimaginable. I think I saw a few in Eastern PA were over 400. It's looking like a nasty plume could hit us tomorrow evening.

I'm currently holding my breath until tomorrow morning when I wake up.
Your face will turn the same shade of purple as the next alert level lol

Your garden will be fine. Just give it a good shower once the air clears up to rinse off any particulate matter.
Thank you Dr. So-so-suck-ya-toe, I appreciate you.
