1/ Seattle, on my morning walk with the dog

Same view of Lake Washington
October 2019 vs September 2020

That's smoke from fires burning hundreds of miles away.
Notice, you can't see the lake or the city in the distance.

We're the lucky ones. We don't have to evacuate or start over.

Climate change isn't happening.
Climate change is here.

Wherever you are, it will be there soon.
You should care about it, if not for the liberal west coast, for yourself, wherever you live.

Last time I talked about the wildfires burning in WA, CA, and OR, I had to hide and block dozens of "good! Let them burn!" comments from MAGAs.

I made this a "people you follow only can reply". Hopefully I don't follow any climate deniers.

Air quality through Saturday will be at least "Unhealthy" across Western Washington. Smoke will increase aloft tonight into tomorrow as well, as the bulk of the smoke offshore moves through. #WAwx #seattlesmoke
This model posted essentially shows smoke through the entire column (Total Smoke), highlighting that the sky will be very obscured.

Here is the near-surface smoke forecast. Overall the theme is the same, significant impact to air quality through Saturday. #WAwx

Smoke from fires can be dangerous for everyone. Take steps to protect your health. Stay indoors as much as possible when the air quality is at unhealthy levels. Close windows and doors, pay attention to the heat & stay hydrated. #seattlesmoke

.@SeattleParks beaches, boat ramps, parks, and playfields are closed through Sunday due to the unhealthy air quality. We will not be issuing citations, but we urge all residents to stay inside if they are able and avoid outdoor activities.
@SeattleParks .@SeattleHSD in partnership with @KingCountyWA is standing up an emergency smoke shelter for people experiencing homelessness. The shelter is located in SoDo and can serve approximately 80 individuals. More info: Image

Hello from Seattle.

It's not raining. This is smoke from California, Oregon, and to a lesser extent, other place in Washington state.

Miss me with your "climate change isn't real" bullshit.

People all over the world have been living with the effects of climate change for years.

Every summer for the last 10+ years, Seattle has had to spend days and days indoors due to poor air quality.

This year is something different.

All you fucking idiots in my mentions talking about Antifa setting fires can fuck all the way off.
