MrJoeBlack Posted July 5, 2015 #1 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) This includes Victoria BC and all Alaskan Voyages, Due to Several wildfires in the Area people with young children, elderly, or chronic breathing issues may want to keep a close eye on the Air Quality in these areas, no alert has been issued as of right now but due to the heavy smoke blanketing the area it could come at any time.

drvalo Posted July 5, 2015 #2 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Much of the smoke is also in Chicago because of the jet stream. We haven't seen blue sky for days now and there is a smoky haze. The fires seem to be just huge!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare www3traveler Posted July 6, 2015 #8 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I live 320 miles south and east of Seattle, early this morning the sky was full of smoke. It is a little better now. It is a tough summer for firefighters- long very hot dry days, fireworks doing damage and several of the fires being called arson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urban trekker Posted July 6, 2015 #10 Share Posted July 6, 2015 It is starting to improve in downtown Vancouver - the wind is shifting direction so it should start to clear our overnight. What we really need is RAIN !!! Cheers! Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted July 6, 2015 #11 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I'm so sorry how much people are suffering from these fires and hope all stay safe. Certainly am keeping those brave firefighters in my thoughts as they risk all to help the rest of us. Hope it rains (heavily) very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quercus alba Posted July 7, 2015 #12 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Are you sure the Chicago smoke wasn't from the the Grateful Dead shows at Soldier Field this past weekend...lol LOL :D We're upwind from that here, and we've still had smoke this week. Maybe Colorado? ;) Edited July 7, 2015 by quercus alba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drvalo Posted July 7, 2015 #13 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Are you sure the Chicago smoke wasn't from the the Grateful Dead shows at Soldier Field this past weekend...lol LOL. Pretty sure it was the folks in Indiana who had problems with the prevailing winds wafting the Deadhead smoke their way. I live NW of the city and Soldier Field, so pretty sure that is the smoke from Canada, however it was a good cover for the Deadheads. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
