1:00 AM: Nobody burning right now. But the light odor of burnt wood lingers in the air. Ick!
3:00 AM: Light wood smoke at this time. Somebody is burning wood. Can't open the windows! Warm and stuffy in here! I don't know if it is a recreational fire or a fireplace. The air is smoky whatever the source of burning wood happens to be. Smoky, polluted air is the problem. It is 51 degrees at this time according to a television news website. It is not uncommon for the air temperature to dip into the mid to low 50s during the summertime. I don't know why anyone would have a fireplace going at 3 AM in June. Don't they use blankets?
This summer could very well be an even smokier hell than last summer was unless something is done about this problem. If people are using fireplaces at 3 AM in early June, Lord help us.
Nobody burned wood this evening. It was cool (50 degrees) and rained sporadically all day. I stepped outside and took several deep breaths of the wonderful fresh air. So refreshing. All it would have taken to ruin that is for one person to start a fireplace. Just one person can smoke up and pollute an entire neighborhood where hundreds live.
