    Damn wild fire smoke here!

    Damn! Getting nailed with wild fire smoke! Winds just right as getting smoke from BC Canada, eastern WA fires, and CA wild fires! I can barely see the island trees a mile away!

    Shold be blowing away as on shore winds (although slight) now. Even NorCal I5 fires should be going east...

    Hey Robby, I did a motorcycle trip out to Idaho and back a couple of weeks ago. The smoke was already noticeable in Nebraska, and the visibility in Wyoming was terrible. Had a fire erupt 13 miles west of where I stayed in Stanley, ID a couple hours before I got there. The whole sky was blocked out from it. The road west was still open the next morning so I got around it and kept going on my original route and then it cleared up. But you guys have really had a rough year out that way.

    Bob, done 3 month long CC rides out here from Illinois. Stayed in Stanley too by the way and BMW guys were having a rally there, think I was the only HD! All in the 90's and never ran into any wildfires. Not the drought season were getting lately. But in 2006 went back Illinois for a all year grad HS picnic. Few fires going back, but coming back? Stayed in Boise. Then did the other side the Saw Tooth's into Eastern WA. Smokey as it gets! Came up over Mt. Rainier and WHAM! Perfect sunset, and a blast fresh ocean air!
