I haven't checked in for several days but it pretty much sucks so not much to say! It's been hot and it's going to stay hot. Maybe a shower tomorrow but not enough to put a dent in the now building drought.- 1

August 2026 PNW Weather
Greetings from Montana, overlooking a very smoky Flint Creek valley. Cool breeze kicked up after sunset and seems to be helping air quality, but I could still see ash in the air in the beam of my flashlight. Also a tired doggo after her first long road trip.- 4
