Murky

View west from the back of my house last week, looking toward the Carson Range--of which there is no sign! The inset is a similar view (not quite aligned, as shown by the position of the little gray barn) when the winds had shifted northeasterly and had brought in cleaner air. The murk is smoke from the wildfires in California, mostly from the Creek Fire, which is burning in heavy timber about 200 miles (320 km) south. Air quality (unsurprisingly) was in the "unhealthy" range.
