[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live on the west coast where this is an annual thing. 130, not a big deal. High 100s especially for multiple days and we start to be careful. [b]At a certain point our pool and beach closes because the lifeguards can’t focus safely. My kid’s indoor sport has been cancelled because they rely on rolling up huge garage doors for temperature control in the summer[/b] but during smoke season the haze is so bad some years that you can’t see across the building indoors.

My personal rule is that if you feel tightness in your chest or are randomly coughing, it’s time to be an indoor cat.[/quote]

This is what I mean. Nothing at all is being cancelled even in 150-200+ AQI. The library had a big Back to School kick off in the smoke, and two towns over there is an outdoor carnival going on all weekend. Our town has an art festival today. Camps are continuing as they have all summer and I don’t see kids moving indoors. It really just feels like me holing up at home, making my family hole up at home, and wear masks on errands, while everyone else from toddlers to the elderly look at us like we are crazy. I see the air quality warnings from the government… why does it seem like I’m the only one who seems them? Is it different in DC?[/quote]

Because people are fools. Didn’t you realize that during covid? Cancer and breathing problems is hell. Don’t take chances with your lungs. Nothing is worth it. DC doesn’t have that level of smoke right now. [/quote]
