Smoky as hell again today in Boulder County. [View all]

It's also 91 F with a hot, dry wind. I had to pick up some mulch today and couldn't even see the mountains from Louisville. The 40- minute outing gave me an instant headache. I guess the smoke is coming from the Cameron fire. The air quality is terrible.
