Our skies are basically clear but still have a brownish haze visible from the Canadian wildfires.  There is satellite imagery showing that these fires are probably purposely set which is  criminal.  I hope the Canadian government finds out who is doing it.  As for  us, we are expecting some much needed rain beginning tonight and lasting over the next several days.  It is expected to do much to clear our air, at least for the near future.  It won’t do much good if these fires keep happening.
