The plume of smoke is gone.

But the air is thick with ash and smoke, even though there is not an actual plume. I am not sure if this is good or not.

I have the teevee on constantly, my daughter is home sick, and she and I have been cuddling up together. We are doing the inhalers and hangin' out. I wish I could get this smell out of the house.

We do not intend to leave the house today, unless told by the officials to do so.

but you're alive, comparatively well and your house is still standing. Thank goodness for small favors. Hopefully this will all end soon.

3. I'm not sure why your air is still so thick with crap...

Maybe tonight, the breeze off the ocean will move it away...

I'm hoping, sweetie...

Hopefully, the worst is over...

Cripes, I forgot to ask my sis about her asthma.

7. Hey KW

Good vibes for your safety.

Are the fires near UC Irvine at all? My niece is a freshman there.

Stay safe! :hi:

8. The fires are about 12 miles from UCI

I am sure your niece smells it, but she would not be in any danger at all.
