jm1220 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 You can tell that improvement is inching its way south through the Hudson Valley and CT on the visible sat-that’s where you see clouds bubbling up away from the smoke. But we’re socked (choked) in for a while around the city. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bch2014 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Things seem *SLIGHTLY* brighter here in Hoboken than they did 15 minutes ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabehippie Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Air quality index is in 300-400 range, which is horrid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClimateChanger Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Impressive to see a 6 degree temperature drop right around local solar noon just two weeks before the summer solstice. Like a miniature nuclear or impact winter. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2112wxgrl Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 It became a little brighter in Wantage NJ a bit ago. The regional HS closed early due to smoke inside the building. If you were alone in a hall, you could see a haze per my teen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psv88 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Stepped outside and the air smells horrible, sun is gone. Definitely in the worst of it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWCCraig Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Visibilities less than a mile now. Looks unreal outside. Everything is orange, the smell is strong. Unreal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinRP37 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 I honestly think the Yankees should postpone until tomorrow. This is not healthy for athletes to play in nor for fans to sit in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Down to 1mi visibility at Farmingdale and 1.5mi at JFK. 0.75mi at Central Park and 1mi at Islip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxeyeNH Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 If it had been overcast it would have been near midnight dark. This has happened a few times in history but this is definitely a once in a generation (at least) event. The upper low over Quebec was in the perfect position to drive the smoke plume down the coast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smith Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 We had this same air quality emergency in 2021 about a month after the heat dome, it was much warmer than you currently have it, around 90F but same air quality (readings above 300). I got very ill during that spell, not sure if it was COVID or the smoke affecting my lungs, but perhaps both. If you're at risk, take care. It took me about three weeks to recover fully from the lung problems. At least if the upper level flow returns to wessterly or southwessterly this smoke should stop flowing south but it may take a few days to vent it all away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANDA Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Worst of it has passed my area. Disk of sun again visible and no visible smoke in the air at the surface. Still dirty looking sky and stink of smoke but not near as bad as 2-3 hours ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of it isn't visible anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
