It was hot today. But not hot enough to discourage someone from burning wood for a short while.
5:00 PM: No smoke. 91 degrees. Relative humidity is 54%. The air is not as heavy as it was yesterday.
6:00 PM: No smoke.
7:30 PM: Light wood smoke at this time. Somebody somewhere is burning wood. Whenever I venture out looking for wood smoke, I never have a problem finding it. Somebody is always burning wood in this smoky hell of a town. Prior to this time there was the smell of grilling in the air. The wood smoke did not last more than 15 minutes. The wood burning could be associated with the grilling. Or somebody could be burning some dead branches that were blown out of a tree. It is possible someone a quarter mile away started bonfire and the breeze brought the smoke to us for a while before changing direction. I don't care what the source of the wood smoke is. Smoky air is smoky air and we are sick of it!
8:00 PM: No smoke.
There was no wood smoke for the rest of the evening. We got off lucky tonight thanks to the heat.
