I drove from Town N' Country over the Howard Franklin and the smoke has only become thicker in St. Pete. Still nothing on the news yet.

Wondering this myself.. It might be from a sarasota brush fire? I know it's smoky in downtown St. Pete, Clearwater and Carrollwood/T&C.
edit: nope

Yeah i heard on the radio this morning there are 97 fires at the Florida/Georgia border right now. I can't believe how smoky it is all the way down here though.

I remember about 5 years ago there was a huge fire along the border and the entire area had thick smoke hang around for a few days. When I would go out to my car in the morning there were ashes all over it!

I woke up this morning worried that my house or a neighbors house was on fire.

It usually happens at least once a year, brush fires from up north.

My co-worker just brought this to my attention as well. I live north of the stadium so had no idea. He referenced the same as foofdawg.

That's incredible that this much smoke has made it this far without getting dissipated more. I can't imagine what it's like farther north.

I decided to go to the office today instead of working from home. It was getting annoying as hell to work from home.
