It's just as dark now. What I've heard is this is a combination of fog and smoke.

I remember you have had some recent medical issues. Hope this doesn't complicate things for you.
With all that ash and soot I don't know how you would avoid it.

I think it is because the smoke is so high, it's shading out the sun. Yesterday was a weird yellow, but today is incredible! Because the smoke is so high, that's probably why we aren't smelling it.
I guess the closest to this would be a volcano.
I so some pix of the smoke, and it looked an atomic bomb cloud.

We could sure use an early rainy season.
Stay safe, Yuiyoshida.

Thought it was still night and my clock was screwed up this morning. Still fairly dark at 3 p.m. and quite eerie.
