Friday 04/09/2010 Air Pollution

2:15 AM: Very faint wood smoke is in the air at this time.

6:00 AM: A smokiness probably from vehicle exhaust is in the air.

4:35 PM: No wood smoke. 64 degrees. A nice spring day sure to be ruined by wood smoke.

8:00 PM: Light to moderate wood smoke. It is smoky outside! You do not want to be sitting outside breathing this air. We closed our windows earlier. Nobody around me appears to be burning. I cannot see any smoke rising from any back yard or chimney. It could be a bonfire or a recreational use of a fireplace. I am not going out to look for it. Going to bed to dream about living in a city that doesn't have smoky air every day.

11:55 PM: The air is mostly fresh. I woke up and checked the air on my way back to bed.
