Did you see the visible satellite of that? It just kept boiling right on that stalled dry line. The smoke was flowing in from the nw and suddenly that complex exploded and kept boiling. It was a beautiful event.

A++ morning

Yeah that storm popped right over the bay. Did you see that training line of storms that moved across central/southern NJ? Some 4" amounts in that area.

Skies clear but can smell smoke.

interesting, we are in the thick of it this morning and you are absolutely correct about the lack of bird songs

My niece and a friend are going to a concert at Ravens stadium tonight. Eeeek

We should hopefully be clearing out today.

Northern edge on the GOES East did not budge much of a few frames. Would bot surprise me.

Just unsubstantiated claims and no evidence?

Hrrr has the smoke sitting here all day

The specific smell is what I remember from a few years ago. Not a campfire smell, but an acrid, completely unpleasant smell. My AQI is hovering around 300. IAD and DCA are near 1 mile visibility.

It def makes the sun look cool even if you know it’s like puffing on a Marlboro red when you go outside

Still some smoke out there thankfully

I’m hoping the county just calls it. They cancelled games during the heat wave earlier this month, surely they would cancel for shit air quality

It smells like the forest fire moved into a huge pile of used tires. Smell like burning rubber. The odd blue fog is nice too. It's going to be a great summer day lol. Have i mentioned how I dislike summer lol

Luckily there has been some rain in the thunder bay region. Including a mcs going through the wildfire area currently. Hopefully this is the worst we get this summer.

point them to the state gvt guidance for its own employees today that work outside

452 near Middletown. Brutal.

Nationals are also away

AirNow has the AQI in Kearneysville here at 448.

Ha. Well orioles are away tonight so scratch that chance for help…

When you figure it out let me know. Hoping for the same tonight for myself haha
