They got entire reserves of syrup in Canada, and they have this regulatory board that controls the supply leaked out to drive prices up. There's a bunch of dubious grade marks handed out that determines the wealth of your syrup. And the maple syrup regulatory board is experimenting with suicide bomber kangaroos in Australia, which is weird they have a military branch for the maple syrup sector.
It's a whole rabbit hole.

Post by: tp4tissue on Mon, 17 July 2023, 18:13:22: It looks like they've been tweaking the maps / doctoring it,

Cuz the smoke path now looks nothing like that which is tracked by purple air. Whereas for the past months, it's tracked exactly 1:1

Could believe that, especially with the way other industries work (like diamonds). Suicide bomber kangaroos could be effective and you wouldn't know because you could hide the bomb in a pouch, but so will drop bears and you don't need to risk strapping a bomb to them, just not getting your face ripped off.

Today there was an air quality warning here - in Tennessee - from the Canadian fires !!

Jesus, I remember during the Australian bush fires back during the pandemic we had hazardous air all across the state. Is there thick smoke in Tennesse cause during the fires there was a thick smoke that was everywhere even down in lower victoria. These fires seem to be even worse than those ones, which were already catastrophic to the enviroment and the natural flora and fauna.

Post by: Darthbaggins on Wed, 19 July 2023, 13:52:50: There's a major haze here in GA - noticed it the morning before a warning popped up due to the change in color of the sun that morning. It's bad and I know Atlanta already has pollution issues but this spiked it higher.

Post by: tp4tissue on Tue, 25 July 2023, 14:00:44: It seems like, they are manipulating the model to cancel out and reduce projection assuming the smoke dissipates much more quickly than it does.

So it'll look like whatever smoke's out there wasn't (anada's fault, but IT TOTALLY WAS..

They've also lightened the weight by about ~30 ug/m^3 across the board, so the splotches are 1 whole shade lighter overall. That's like reducing AQI by ~60 units.
