Hey, this is just a friendly reminder to take precautions, since the air quality is getting worse due to the nearby fires. Excessive smoke inhalation isn’t healthy, so avoid it if you can.
Some resources:

- Wildfire tracker from the Oregonian: https://projects.oregonlive.com/wildfires/map
- CDC site for smoke inhalation effects: https://www.cdc.gov/disasters/wildfires/smoke.html
Hopefully these fires won’t last, but if they do, get an air filter as the CDC recommends.

Boooooo! Yep, smell the smoke this morning. I’m surprised we lasted this long, air quality wise, with Bedrock fire right over there.
Yeah, we’ve been lucky until now. I even left my window open last night and it was fine until this morning, when I caught the first whiff of smoke.
