mom31257 Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Please pray for rain to come in the Southeast! So many fires are burning, and smoke is covering a very large area. My dad lives in east TN, and he's started having wheezing. He says he can't even see the mountain range that is seen from the front yard. He's talking about coming here, but we're having some smoke, too, even south of Atlanta. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Girls' Mom Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 The smoke is awful here (TN). My oldest dd has had to double her asthma meds. I don't normally have respiratory issues, but have had a constant cough/congestion and my sinuses are killing me. You can't step outside without smelling something burning, and it is a constant thick brown haze. There have been some days that it even burns my eyes. We need rain SO badly.

teachermom2834 Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 It is really bad and no rain on the forecast. We are in SE TN but I was surprised my college kid in Atlanta is seeing it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RegGuheert Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 :grouphug: DD24 is going to school in Athens, GA. She talks about the smoke whenever we talk to her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 There are fires in north GA as well, and the winds have been blowing south easterly, bringing the smoke down through the state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abacus2 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Here is a comparison picture of Chattanooga, TN. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10211626807132316&set=p.10211626807132316&type=3&theater It really is bad. My throat was burning and I was coughing while driving around. I am pretty sure we haven't had rain since September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
