Oddly enough, my kids and I smelled smoke this morning yet didn't smell it yesterday when it was worse (in CR area.)

It has gone back down the shitter this morning but hopefully will clear up as this system passes this afternoon

It has been going since last night in Nebraska and Colorado so it has been one for a bit already.
