I heard the air quality outside is very bad. I am looking out my office window and it's extremely hazy and the skies look yellow. I have not been outside since I got in this morning. My mom has asthma and she said it's bad outside. She was only outside for a few minutes but she warned be about the air quality. Crazy how this smoke travels so far. Be safe out there. Just went outside and the smell of smoke is unbelievable! Wow!

Time to wear masks again! I hope you guys have N95 with a good seal. Those blue surgical mask won't do anything since the smoke is everywhere and it doesn't seal!

I wonder if this was how the residents of Pompeii felt...

The west coast goes through this every year with the California fires.

Air quality feels a lot better today not sure about, Brooklyn queens, Bronx and NYC. I don't really smell it today and it looks better outside too.

Well NY is not used to this and the air quality index was around 400.
