Heavy smoke in Prescott Az this morning. I am having some respiratory issues, I should not have walked the dogs. I’m OK, I will be using a lot of allergy and asthma meds and staying indoors the rest of the day.

The smoke is coming from the Brooklyn fire, near Sunset point.

Last night was a full moon. From Prescott it looked orange due to the smoke from wildfires. The fires are not nearby, the Yarnell fire is pretty much out.

This morning we have a lot of smoke at ground level, it was bothering my eyes and my asthma when I walked the dog pack at 7 am. It’s 85 degrees at 9:10 am headed to 104, very hot for us at 5500 ft elevation. I think I’ll be indoors much of the day 🙂
