Thursday 05/03/2012 Air Pollution

Wood and yard waste smoke filled our air this evening.  Pretty much normal for North St. Paul, MN.

5:49 PM:  Very faint grass smoke coming in the windows at this time.  There is an illegal yard waste burner out there somewhere.  78 degrees, breezy.

6:12 PM:  Faint grass smoke coming in the windows.  It comes and goes with the breeze.  Time to close the windows!

7:00 PM:  Light grass smoke.  The yard waste smoke is getting stronger.

7:45 PM:  Light wood smoke.

8:10 PM:  Faint to light wood smoke.  72 degrees.

11:30 PM:  Very faint wood smoke is in the air at this time.  That makes about six hours of wood or yard waste smoke in our air this evening.  Do you want to live in a city like this?
