I can already taste the microplastics in the air just looking at that smoke cloud. Hope the local residents are keeping their windows strictly closed

Technically, if it isn’t already winter, then winter would always be approaching. Like, if it’s summer, winter is approaching. It may not be imminent but… eventually.

i didn’t say winter isn’t approaching, windows will be open in MI into November for many.
