Wacky weather and smoke from local fires

[Dana67Dart]

Sunday it was 92 deg and smoke filled air in Northern Colorado.
(View of smoke from Longmont looking north west, all the smoke drifting directly over Fort Collins)

Monday it was 60s and the sky was blacked out from the smoke to the point parking lot lights were turning on.

Today. It's 34 and snowing.

Yea, My Family in Greeley said all the Street Lights were on in town. As for the weather, as you know ...That's Colorado.. Hope the moisture helps with the Fires.

It didn't get the street lights here, but it got the lazy peoples with the AUTO headlight switches

There will come a day when someone will get into a classic and not be able to start it (key) let alone drive it (steer for yourself) if they somehow figured out how to get it started no way they are going anywhere if it is a manual trans.

Same thing down here Dana, except we got into the upper 80s yesterday. Smoke came in bad down here. Snowing here as I type this.

We still have smoke. It may get to 70° today, but it's running out of time to do so.
Friend of mine just texxed me, his sister lives near Shaver Lake/Creek Fire, the big one at Yosemite, her house is just burnt rubble now .

3 to 4 inches as predicted just came in a bit later. And in a couple of days it will be back in the 80s

So sad. My childhood home in malibu burnt down a few years after we moved. I remember seeing flames at the top of our hillside on two occasions. The sound of KNX 1070 news radio's intro gingle haunts me to this day.
