By the graphic on the air quality page, it seems the entire State (except a small portion to the east) is having poor to bad air.

Not sure that is why I'm feeling so crappy today. I manage most days...but maybe the 2 nice days we had set me up!

From 9 am to 4 pm the air has been getting worse. It's been unhealthy.If it keep increasing it will be VERY unhealthy.
But I'm hoping that if the wind subsides like normal it will get better. I hope a lot better I have things to do outside.

(because I don't work today) but found it really tedious. And even inside I can feel the difference from the last couple of days. I'm using my inhaler MUCH more, feeling crappy and tired and out of it. I think when it stays bad, I kind of adapt a little or something, then when it improves and goes bad again I seem to struggle...I hope the decrease in temps means some kind of improvement, either in handling the fires or the air or both.

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.

Even sheltered inside I'm coughing a lot.

But the air is a lot better. At noon it was 114... unhealthy for sensitive groups... and apparently they mean you LOL

The wind must have shifted.Right now based on me not being able to see Table rock from my house I would say the air quality is "very unhealthy".. in the purple. if not "hazardous".
