For those of you shocked (shocked I tell you!) about the air quality in the Eastern US right now, this photograph was taken from my kitchen window on September 9th, 2020 in San Francisco. Same cause, different spot.
This was taken at 12 noon. Welcome to your new normal.
@Animeraider In Shasta County you couldn't see the next stoplight :(

Hey neighbor.
This was from my rooftop on that day. In the distance is the Golden Gate.
@jurban The ridgeline in the background of mine just below the sky is the tops of the trees in Golden Gate Park. (I'm Outer Richmond)
That was quite a couple of days.
@Animeraider That's right. I remember that infernal year. And for everyone who thought it was just a "California problem" - welp, actually, THIS is the new abnormal we've been trying to warn everyone about. Honorable mention to Australia who also tried to warn everyone in 2019.

Literally and metaphorically, we're burning the only environment for human civilization
