When there's smoke, there's fire...

For days, we've been dealing with hot and smoky weather, so much so that I thought my eyesight was impaired, but the air has been filled with so much smoke from local and out-of-state wildfires that we no longer can see clearly, even through short distances.

I guess that our lungs have been filling with smoke and we can only hope for some isolated thunderstorms and rain showers along the Wasatch Front, scheduled for today, to scour the skies of some of that smoke.

Now, while we breathe this filthy, smoky air, we also doubled-down with a surge in chenopods and ragweed rated “very high” on yesterday‘s pollen index. Hopefully, we'll all survive!
