    Sigh, I was thinking it didn’t get cold frequently this year. We’re so fucked. If not this year by some miracle, then next.

    At least my box of n95s is still going strong to deal with the smoke. Small silver linings on big clouds of smoke.

        I haven’t stopped wearing them, mostly. High density living means you can more easily hear people coughing. It’s been pretty noisy at night this winter, and Covid was bad enough for me the first time around that I don’t care to have seconds.

      I went to a garage sale and got an industrial fan for $20. Takes the skin off and so loud but does the job. I can’t imagine energy efficient though.

        I’ve an industrial fan that I set up when working on my car. Works beautifully. Hogs power like crazy.

      Yeah, either this year or next. Could be 3 dry years so I’d say total area might go for a record.
