My brother's friends' view today:

 

[Rebels57]

Just had to put a mask on at work....inside of a building. This is outrageous.

 

[trostol]

It's pretty bad outside right now...haze/fog/smoke clinging to the air...the air has that burning wood smell/"taste"...can't see the city skyline at all from my train station

 

[Danko]

Climate change my ass.
lol

Yea. It's gotten worse over the course of the day. Looking out the windows you can see the brownish tinge is even more prevalent than it was a few hours ago.

Delaware Park has cancelled horse races because of the air quality.

 

[WIP CALLER]

I'm in Trenton and usually have a great view across the Delaware river from my office. This afternoon I can barely make out the other side in PA. Insane how quickly it moved in too. It wasn't that bad around noon, hazy but nothing too crazy, now it looks like the 4 horsemen should be arriving any minute.

Wear an N95 or better if you must go outside. Otherwise, stay indoors. People shouldn't be working in those conditions

Neck gators and dust masks do nothing for this.

 

[Cody Webster]

As that map indicated, it's definitely getting worse out the later in the day we get

The people across the street have had their windows open all day. Common sense: some people have it, some people don’t.

Maybe they just like the smell?

 

[Lord Defect]

Worked outside all day today, work a Scott at 2000 respirator for a portion of it, my damn chest still hurts.

I have decided to go to the Phillies game tonight. When I’m inevitably complaining about how I feel on here don’t feel bad for me. Feel bad for Thatcher Venmo and HCette for having to deal with me.

Just to be clear, they’re staying home and I’m going with a buddy.

O/U on how long I last? 2.5 innings

If you can’t do the full 9 don’t bother. You’ll be fine. You’re sitting and drinking beer. The athletes will be feeling this tomorrow.

Oh well that's sweet then. Go get that sweep boys.

Nevermind,

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

You are all welcome to come up to New Hampshire. Air quality is much improved from yesterday. Just a little cool

 

[DancingPanther]

Nevermind,

Jeez how bad is it in the Philly area? It's hazy out here but you can't tell it's smoke, we just know it is from the news

It's gotten progressively worse as the day has gone on. When I was out around 7AM it was kinda hazy and you had the remnant of smell and little bit of taste on your mouth.

The past couple hours it's gotten darker out and it's a lot more noticeable. Like when I was a kid there was a bad housefire and coming back into the house like a week or two later and cleaning off stuff and getting that ashy/smoke smell.

 

[DancingPanther]

What's wild is the air quality here according to AccuWeather is similar to Philly's, but it's so....not the same. Maybe it's because I'm on a big ridge and I'm above the plume

Danny Briere has painted the sky orange in reverence of the rebuild

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

I think it probably came from MLB. The Yankees were postponed pretty much the same exact minute as the Phillies.
