Still a little bit of low level smoke, but skies are much clearer overall. It's great seeing the sun again!

HRRR brings some smoke back in later tonight with the sea breeze. Looks pretty clear by Sunday 

Yeah.  Main smoke plume is shifting southward today.  Actually fairly clear up here in NWNJ right now with only some haze to the south and clear blue skies to the NW.

Some models have very little rain tomorrow.   Doesn't look like an all day washout

I suppose we were due for this. Over the past 50 or 60 years precipitation has increased quite a bit. That 46 inches in 2024 would have been above normal some 50 years ago.

Satellite shows the smoke has pushed south but it’s deceiving, still lots of lingering ground level smoke easily seen when outside.

Double hits rarely occur but there is enough forcing tomorrow even with the 1st round early afternoon I like the chances of seeing a 2nd round later in the evening.
