How bad is your air quality?
Better today than yesterday! But still considered unhealthy.

Went into Manhattan today to look at pianos. I am considering trading in my concert grand Mason & Hamlin for something smaller. Either that or just doing an action replacement. Will have to crunch the numbers.

I'm glad the air quality is getting better.

It's affecting where my stepfather lives too only 75 miles away from the City.

Thanks for asking, Daniel. It’s been good here the last several days, in the 30s.

Highs here are ranging up to 90 with nights rarely below 80.

We’re using air quality numbers, not temperature, yes?

I noticed an odd smell outside last night, and this morning the sky is a weird dark gray and the smell is definitely that of something burning. We're getting the wildfire smoke.

Just checked https://www.airnow.gov/?city=A...state=IL&country=USA and the AQI is 186, Unhealthy.

Good day to do some inside projects!

Today we have the dubious distinction of having the worst air quality in the world. We're at an AQI of 209.

Woot

Nothing like what you New Yorkers and others have seen in recent weeks, but it's mighty crummy nonetheless.

Up to 243.

I don't have any allergies or breathing problems like asthma, but after spending just a few minutes outside in the garden, my eyes are scratchy and my nose is running nonstop.

I'd like to see the fire on a map if anyone has one to hand. It must be massive.

363. It looks like yellow fog. It reminds me of my visit to China.
