Vancouver and many parts of southern bc and the island are experiencing the worst air quality in the world. Caused by the massive fires in california, oregon and washington state. It was evident on tuesday but less so the next couple of days but by Friday morning there was s familiar smell of campfire in the air and visibility was down to zero?!!
Share your pics......
A time lapse of this past Tuesday evening.....
Seaside bike ride theres just not that much to see....
If you can't see the sea what you do see is quite eerie......
Yes if you didn't want to wear a mask before you will now....and you live in victoria. No views from here either.
We've had some pretty smokey days in past summers from our own forest fires but this is incredibly thick and looks similar to the winter fog we get during temperature inversions. Unfortunately the sun cant burn it off by midafternoon. The brief bit of sun i did see today had that weird orange glow.
Sunrise or sunset? This morning it was non-existent.....just dull grey.
