It was another smoky evening for us in North St. Paul. Every evening people are burning in this city and the air is almost always smoky. You do not want to live in a polluted hell like this.
4:07 PM: Very faint wood smoke. Welcome home to smoky air. The asshole frequent burner who was burning this time yesterday is burning again at this time. I can see smoke rising from his backyard as I passed through the area.
4:17 PM: No smoke. 70 degrees, sunny.
4:30 PM: A very faint trace of wood smoke.
4:50 PM: Light to moderate wood smoke. The wind has shifted direction bringing smoky air from the asshole frequent burner's yard right to ours. If the smoke is this heavy where we are, how heavy must it be living right next door to that asshole?
5:45 PM: Very faint to faint wood smoke continues. The frequent burner is still burning.
6:05 PM: Very faint to faint wood smoke.
6:45 PM: Faint to light smoke of some type. I don't know what is being burned now.
7:00 PM: Very faint to faint smoke of unknown type continues. Maybe some sort of waste is being burned with wood.
7:50 PM: Very faint to faint wood smoke. It smells like wood now.
8:30 PM: Very faint to faint smoldering wood smoke. The asshole frequent burner must have left his wood to smolder itself out. He likes to do that. He may produce huge clouds of smoke for two hours but produce smoky air for five or six hours after the clouds of smoke are gone.
9:20 PM: Light smoldering wood smoke continues. That's over 5 hours of smoky air coming and going this evening. I went to bed early tonight so this was the last check of the evening.
Do you want to live in a city like this?
