I am staying inside today because of the air quality alert due to the
smoke from the western wild fires. It brings back a memory from my
childhood.
When I was living near Pittsburgh, PA, in September 1950, a huge plume
of smoke from extensive wild fires in Alberta, Canada, descended on the
area. At mid afternoon, it was so dark it looked like night time. I
remember going outside with my grandmother to look at the dark sky,
noticing that the street light had come on. I have never forgotten the
eerie sight.
Let's hope our current smoke plume doesn't get that bad!
