Here are some pics I took along the way to Golden and back.
Awesome pics. Mrs. Bugs looks gross and sad but great shot of the helicopter.
Welcome to our newest member Celcius, what part of the cariboo are you in?
we'd love to get your weather conditions from your neck of the woods when possible as well.

I JUST missed you in Golden. I don't know if you read my posts above or not. Looking at your pic it seems like it's even WORSE than when I left yesterday.
I think it's probably gotten worse. When I arrived in Kamloops I could see the north shore from the Sahali area but by the time I left yesterday morning the smoke had gotten too thick to see down into the valley below. I'd assume it's similar for most of the interior.
My suggestion is to head north for holidays. Low fire danger and rain in recent day. And no smoke. A friend of mine just headed out for an epic trip to Tuktoyaktuk. 2021 is the perfect year for that.
Massive boom and power flicker here this afternoon about 20 minutes ago. Anyone else notice anything?
My neighbours all came out onto the street but we couldn't see anything.
North Surrey/Fraser Heights
Elevation - 85 M./278 Ft.
Fairly thick smoke around Field (1st pic) but it really cleared up around Banff (2nd pic). More smokey here in Calgary (3rd pic) with lowered visibility but it looks like mostly high elevation stuff and haze and not as bad as the southern interior.

Not sure. It may have been a power line fuse cutout. When those things blow, it makes a really loud bang. Power likely went off somewhere in your area. Happened in my neighborhood during the heat wave.

I would just move north if I could. Still get a chance at winter, bearable summers.
