Sunday Smokes- Surviving living in a bon fire.
Well it’s been a full two weeks of living in what has been like a perpetual camp fire. On September 8th Wenatchee and the surrounding areas were hit with lightning strikes igniting over a hundred wildfires. (Fire Incident information)
What would next happen is rare here at this time of year. An inversion settled in trapping the smoke in the Columbia valley.
Here is a picture I took from a Home Inspection in Cashmere Washington. This is only a few hundred feet before you cannot see anything.
We are hoping for some relief soon but it may be a while. In the meantime all of us in the central Columbia basin are suffering from air quality that is considered hazardous.
This is a picture coming back from a home inspection in Moses Lake. I am now driving back into the cloud.
“I make it a rule never to smoke while I'm sleeping. “
