It is a warm and humid day. The high reached 92 degrees. It is a windy evening. It remains to be seen if the warmth and wind discourages recreational burning this evening.
7:00 PM: No smoke yet. We are enjoying that wonderful fresh air. 89 degrees.
8:00 PM: Fresh air continues.
9:30 PM: Fresh air continues. 82 degrees with 66% relative humidity at this time.
10:30 PM: Fresh air continues. If we can just make it to midnight without wood smoke......
Midnight: No wood smoke. We made it!
This was our second evening in a row without wood smoke polluting our precious air. The plausible reasons for the lack of wood smoke tonight are the warm temperature, wind, and high humidity. The pyromaniacs in this town do not burn as much when it gets hot. It was nice to step outside for a breathe of air without inhaling wood smoke pollution.
