Sunday 10/17/2010 Air Pollution

There was no wood smoke this evening. I noticed no yard waste smoke all day. A couple windows were left slightly open around the house including the window in the room where I watched the Minnesota Vikings and other football games. The temperature was 57 degrees at 4 PM and it was cloudy. By 11 PM the temperature dropped to 48 degrees. At that cool temperature, there was not a trace of wood smoke in the air. It was wonderful. It was a great evening for everyone who loves fresh, unpolluted air. I stepped outside a couple of times this evening and took a few deep breaths of clean air. It is not usually possible to do that because the air in this city is so heavily polluted with wood smoke.
