We have had some heat here the last few days. Pretty much anything 80+ makes us think we are going to melt around here. We've been in the 90s and rather unpleasant as most of us don't have A/C in our houses.
The burn ban went into effect last week, but it seems that not everyone was following the rules. There are two fires burning on Harstine island and we are getting the smoke and ash fallout here at our house. We usually open the windows to pull in cool air, but this is pretty bad. I may have to close up the house. I have already taken a second dose of sinus meds, and I'm still stuffing up and getting more snorkely. I am kind of worried about our older neighbor. She has breathing issues anyway. I'll call her in the morning and see how she is doing. I know she has a window air conditioner, so that should help her some.
I know Joy was dealing with wildfires and smoke at her place too. The firefighters had to suspend the water drops they were making because someone was flying a drone in the area. I'm hoping that whoever was flying it wasn't intending to cause problems. The authorities are asking anyone with info to call in. I hope they are able to resume the air drops tomorrow and get the fire contained.
I think I'm going to head off to bed and nurse my sinus headache. Hopefully it will be gone by in the morning!
What's up in your neck of the woods?
