Medfords air quality just went to hell

[tvguy]

The air quality maps show Medford air quality right now as "moderate" and in the mid 70's.  Maybe because I haven't been exposed to it for 10 months or so, but I would have thought, much worse. I took the dog out and had to come home. Just sitting on the bench, I was nauseated, light-headed, and feeling weak and sick and had to come home.  And it looks worse than 'moderate'.  Although I can still see Roxy Ann. A bit.

I realize you posted this at 8:48 but you must have been looking at the wrong air quality info. Because at 8:00 the air quality was "very unhealthy" at 241

I looked at two. Oregon.gov and DEQ.  What I think is that they were not updated at that point. Because it made me ill. And after not having been exposed and now it's up there in the purple, that makes more sense.

I have a coupld of things to do this morning, (one a job interview and I won't be taking a  printed resume, thank you very much!) and then an errand and then home to crawl in my hole and pull the hole after me.  Even sheltered inside I'm coughing a lot.

The link I showed is as good as any other. I think it's normally updated every hour but right now it's two hours behind.
But the air is a lot better.  At noon it was 114... unhealthy for sensitive groups... and apparently they mean you LOL
