Eskimo Joe Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Smoke may insulate our overnight lows. It's 12:15 am and the Baltimore City mesonet site is at 84°. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDM Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Took our trash out about an hour ago. Our driveway is very long so I use a helmet flashlight to light the way. Could see the smoke and other suspended particulates drifting in the air. Looked like the mist of a dense fog, but with smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowenOutThere Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago It’s nasty out there. Smell is worse than I remembered from a couple years ago. AQI is around 150 so we still aren’t in the worst of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzo83 Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago 15 hours ago, MN Transplant said: To be clear, IAD has never recorded an 80+ low for any day. The morning low was 81. The question is whether it falls below 80 by the end of the day. It did drop down to 79 last evening when the winds went calm, and then rose again before midnight. IAD is 85F at the 1am ob - officially 96/81 on the day. First 80+ low 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzo83 Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago DCA is 86F at 1am - another 80+ low there (3 so far this year) - 98/81. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
high risk Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago 53 minutes ago, Eskimo Joe said: Was up in Philly today. It was far worse than Baltimore, everything had a chlorine-esque odor. There was fine particulate in a lot of surfaces. I was in NYC. Really, really unpleasant, although the smoke nicely kept the temperatures down.

LordBaltimore Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Just stepped outside to take the trash out before bed and it smells like straight up roasting plastic. I've never experienced something like this. Throat started scratching up in a few minutes. Wtf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
