Get up into the mountains in New Mexico its not bad at all, best time to visit, much like Colorado or Utah.

Tucumcari.

Tucumcari.

That doesn't sound to bad, July and August are the rainy season, and temps in the low to mid 90s, but low humidity. It's the humidity that kills you in Dallas and Houston, much like Florida, get away from that, and 90s are not bad at all.

Stay hydrated out there, everyone.

Here's a video that helps you optimize that hydration. It helped me a ton:

Hydrate, everyone

I prefer a chart of some sort that shows if I am hydrated well enough.

To stay hydrated, if you pee collect it and put it back in your system.

Arizona is similar. My grandparents had a house in the valley outside Phoenix, but had a trailer in the mountains (town is called Snowflake ironically), that they stayed in for 3-4 months when the heat was at its worst.

So….if Texas doesn’t win a championship, that means they have selfish teammates? Do they take urine tests after each loss to see who was at fault?

Northern suburbs of Minneapolis reporting a AQI of 517. This chart only goes up to 400

No, that’s fine. They just need to recalibrate their scale. If the green limit were 500 instead of 50, you wouldn’t worry a bit. No one really knows what the raw data is telling you. It’s all about where that little arrow is pointed. They’ll get that fixed in the next day or two. Don’t want anyone panicking over something like air quality.

Damn Canadians. Every year they have these issues. Figured their forests would all be burnt after 10 years or so if this.

I think this smoke is actually more from a Minnesota fire that has spread into Canada (if the radio show I listened to on the way to work this morning is correct)

Yeah - the Boundary Waters Canoe Area is closed, they were going in via canoe to get people out.

Not an easy place to evacuate

Most of WI is in 'limit time outside' or 'stay inside' advisories currently. Might get better later today.

Air quality is BAD in Twin Cities. On a numeric scale it's crazy bad but one step outside and you know it's really bad without really needing to have seen a warning. Way worse this morning than last evening, at least in my hood.

Went down into furnace room and shut off outdoor air intake so at least it doesn't smell smoky in the house yet.
