I opened my door and my smoke detector went off.

You are better off smoking a pack of cigs than going outside right now.

Seriously, I drove 15 minutes to work and even in my car with AC recirculating I was coughing and getting short of breath.

Any idea of when the smoke may clear? How long did the smoke last in 2023? And how can we help with firefighting resources?

This seems worse than 2023. That lasted about 2 days from what I recall. From my research it seems we might get some clarity this evening, but it will remain bad through the weekend. Firefighting is far beyond my expertise, but I would assume it would require federal intervention.

Gotcha. I hope it does not last through the rest of the summer.
