Let’s euthanize this conversation

 

An excursion?

 

You threw us a bone; think we're not gonna take it?

 

Ah finally, some resolution

That's kewl

 

Are you sure you want a bone from @JKO1998?

 

I really want to see this up close. It looks amazing. I wonder what's inside...

 

I already have a mismatched spare, my spare is a regular Cooper AT (not stmaxx). Same size though that's all that really matters

 

I hate these damn password reset tests

 

Been downright nasty here in Central Oregon. I live out by Sisters and we were in the 600-800 AQI range through the weekend. Just now finally dropped below 500 to around 430. Visibility has improved from about 1000 feet this weekend to a little over 1/4 mile now.

This weekend...


Now...

 

Jesus, I guess I didn't realize it went much past 500, lol...

 

seriously at that point I would only be going out of the house in a freakin HazMat suit, anything over 300 is considered hazardous even to otherwise healthy people

 

There is a town (Turner, OR) not too incredibly far away that registered 1400+ before the sensor broke on Friday...

 

This is making me wonder if there are two different air index scales lol

 

How's the wind in your neck of the woods?

The smoke feels like it's stagnant over head here in the south sound, no movement at all. Plus it's starting to rain so all this ash is turning into cement lol


Hope you're staying safe down there

 

The fire alone last year made my mom develop asthma; fucking sucks that things are only worse this year around.

 

Some people on our town FB page are posting this stuff about how wildfire ash and water can create lye, I'm too lazy to look up how true it is but apparently if you leave it on your car and it rains, it can harm the paint.

 

Shit, I'm still going to work everyday. Business as usual here...

Same scale...

Some wind, but we're pretty much surrounded by fires on all sides. If there is wind, it just blows more smoke in. Looking to be in the 200-300 range into next week.

 

That sounds plausible, you can make lye by boiling ashes. I'm not sure if boiling is necessary, or just speeds it up.
