Similar situation as much of California, as there are many large wildfires throughout the state. No smoke near me right now, but there was yesterday.

I’ve always been interested in all kinds of lighting, mainly incandescent and HID, and especially all kinds of sodium lamps (HPS/LPS). I’ll tolerate LED but I’m not a fan of it.
I’m not proud to say that my city has Devolved to LED.

It's concerning how there's a lot of fires going on throughout parts of the world. No severe weather here, but the smoke from fires out west are currently making our skies here in Ohio appear cloudy.

Possible severe thunderstorms forecasted for today. Apparent two waves of storms with the threat of hail, damaging winds, frequent lightning and tornadoes. Probably the last threat of severe storms for the year, but we shall see.

Not sure if it would exactly qualify as 'weather', but it would deff qualify as a severe event... On Wednesday one of the wildfires here "exploded" growing from 19k acres to 125k acres in just one day. The number one factor being high winds. (though the ongoing drought, and lots of beetle-killed trees also contributed). Took this pic of the smoke plume at sunset from home: (no its not nearly as close as it might look, as I used the zoom) After dark at times I could see orange glow from the fire in that direction.

Today in Southern CA we have high fire danger weather. The Santa Ana winds came in at 30 MPH with 48 MPH gusts here, and it feels incredibly strong outside. Fortunately there are no fires near me (yet, anyway). The humidity is 3%, dew point -6, and the red flag warning lasts until tomorrow. Not to mention that the air quality was BEYOND HAZARDOUS INDEX today, which has literally NEVER happened before!

We're one of the few warm spots left in the USA right now. Hurricane Zeta is going to bring South Carolina and the rest of the southeast heavy rain later this week. I can feel the humidity building with the system approaching. Even though it's not hot outside, I'm running the A/C a little bit to remove the humidity inside the house. There's a huge winter storm along with an early blast of arctic air that's reached all the way down to New Mexico and northern Texas. I don't know anyone who lives in those places, but they're going to get a historic early season snowstorm this week. Makes me wonder what's going to happen when this snowstorm will collide with Hurricane Zeta. Perhaps a major severe thunderstorm outbreak somewhere closer to me. I'll have to keep an eye on that

Today, it was cold and rainy, which is typical for this time of year. Halloween will have a high of 49 degrees!

Got around 5" of snow yesterday, and its gonna be damn cold again tonight. Good thing is the mountains got snow..over a foot in some locations, and that has for now knocked down the wildfires we have. (they're not out yet, but this storm will be very helpful to the firefighters)

Less than two weeks ago, it was over 80 F here. As I'm writing this it's 24 F outside and we have had multiple snowstorms. Sometimes, fall and spring are practically non-existent in MN.
