More yard waste burning this evening. Aren't we lucky to live in a city with polluted air where people burn whatever they can get their hands on?
6:00 PM: No smoke yet. Sunny and 67 degrees at this time.
6:03 PM: Faint to light leaf smoke. Wouldn't you know it. Somebody had to start burning leaves. Close the windows. I hate this city.
6:10 PM: The burning leaf smoke from earlier is gone. Open the windows.
7:00 PM: No smoke. For the time being.
7:35 PM: Light to moderate leaf and wood smoke. Somebody probably started a bonfire in their firepit and are raking their leaves into the fire. This happens all the time in this nightmare city. The air is really smoky at this time. Is this how you would want to live your life every day? Close the windows again!
8:30 PM: Faint wood smoke at this time. The leaf burning is done. The wood burning continues. The air has been continuously smoky for the past hour.
9:00 PM: Faint wood smoke continues.
10:00 PM: The air is mostly clear at this time. The windows will remain closed all night. Last check of the evening.
