This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

this has happened to me for like 5 of the last 6 years in western washington. last year i had ash raining down on my house from a nearby wildfire. in 2020 the smoke was so thick that i couldn't see out of my apartment windows. i checked on google maps and according to that, the furthest trees that you can see in this pic are about 650 feet away.

(no idea why the pic is on its side)

it managed to get worse, but i don't have any photos of it.
