Corky, it rolled in here about 8:30 pm that same evening. We heard some news about it on the weather report at 6:00 on the local news and Zim was just lighting the grill. He had a poof of smoke go past the windows and joked about that being from Canada.

Around 8:30, I went out to lock the girls in, couldn't see far out of the driveway. The girls were all in their coop and roosted already.

Zim and I went for a little drive to look around...

It got thick really fast and smelled terrible.

As of right now the smoke has cleared around here. But it's still hot.

Yep, quite a bit of perimeter growth to the West and South today in MN.

I have nothing clever to put here.

Was talking to Mark Downey this morning. Him and a couple other FHA guys were in Toronto to fly to Edmonton. Said it wasn’t bad in North Bay, but in Toronto it was thicker than he’s ever seen it.
Evacuation orders are in a small area west of Thunder Bay……unless things have changed in the last few hours.

That's what it looks like here too. It's smoky enough to make driving dangerous.

The birds are being quiet and don't seem to be flying around much. The butterflies, which were everywhere a few days ago, have totally disappeared. My bees seemed to have stopped gathering nectar.
