Smoked in
June 14, 2008
Smoke from the North Carolina fires have ridden a northerly wind and socked in Virginia Beach and the surrounding areas with haze and bringing choked gasps. I feel fairly tolerant of most airborn irritants but these acrid fumes penetrate all of my natural defenses. So a warm, clear June day will need to be spent indoors until the wind changes direction. Not a bad day to be confined to the library as a worker bee though it would be nicer if the HVAC system sucked less of the smoke into the building.
