    It’s 158 here. Grey skies but I don’t smell smoke. You feel something’s off though, an “ugh” sensation being outdoors.

    With better air, I’d be on my bike. I hate not riding in otherwise nice weather.

      I had planned exercise.
      Canada gave me a good excuse to procrastinate.
      May I check the air quality index again tomorrow and see what happens.

            In Iowa this weekend. 30 here, clear blue skies.

            The state is surprisingly pretty, kind of like south central Wisconsin, gently rolling. I expected it to be more like central Illinois.

            We had severe flash floods in Cincinnati yesterday! That has not happened in the 42 years I’ve lived there.

              I’m at a music festival in central Ohio.

              Yesterday the smoke was thick and you could smell the fire. Then a rainstorm came through and washed away the smoke.

              Then the rainstorm turned in to a lightning storm and they stopped the music and told everybody to take cover as people sitting in metal chairs under a metal framed portable canopy wasn’t a great idea during a lightning storm and they wereconcerned for their sound equipment.

              Then they moved the whole deal in to a big exhibition building here at the fairgrounds. That worked fine.

              More storms forecast for this afternoon.

                That was one great thing about SoCal. It wasn’t going to rain from March to November or do. It just wasn’t.

                    Yep. I keep putting off my ride another day…. Before you know it a week passes.

                      AQI was below 50 this morning, so I ran and I swam, finally got some cardio in.
                      The temperature cooled down a bit so the run was quite pleasant; and the water is still warm from previous hot days, so the swim was particularly enjoyable!

                        Not a bad day (temps in 80s and reasonable humidity). AQI is 111, so not great but definitely way way way better than last Thursday.

                          Air in Iowa was pretty bad yesterday morning, but got better by the time we made it to Champaign. Not bad here around Cincinnati, but up from 60 the other day to 95.

                          But we did experience The World’s Largest Truck Stop! And it is enormous. Makes Buc-ees look tiny. It was the only Starbucks around. Also stopped in Champaign for Binny’s and a Portillo’s lunch.

                            549, no signs of letting up.

                            @dolmansaxlil - how bad is it up by you?

                            Sorry - I was in Italy where the air was lovely! However, on the 16th we were at 490 at home so glad I wasn’t there.
