It was a miracle! There was no wood or yard waste smoke pollution tonight. After last night's extreme smoke pollution, we deserved a break. It was 84 degrees and sunny 4:30 PM. It felt a little humid at the time and felt more humid as the evening wore on.
You never know if it is going to be smoky or not in North St. Paul. More often than not, it is. If it isn't raining, the air is usually smoky. The city ordinance gives recreational burners all of the rights and no rights to the rest of us who have to breathe that polluted air. We live at the mercy of air polluters. North St. Paul, Minnesota, is hell on earth!
