Heavy smoke preventing the forecast heat.

Guess it is potash and other micro nutrients in wood ash but not sure on smoke or if the rain does even bring it down wit the amount of weight of water an acre gets it wouldn't take much. And a good way of Mother Nature taking care of herself

Well if there is enough smoke in the air that it blocks the sun. There must be some nutrients in there. I read somewhere that is you irrigated you will have nutrients in that irrigation water reducing sulphur needs etc. Ya not used to this smoke either. I am sure a smoker will smoke double time through this as history says. Lol.

Smells like Jan Lake here this morning from the "little" bit of rain and smoke.

You must smell fish also. Hmmmmm

Nothing like the filleting shack and all the flies though......

Your old enough to know put your nose in the the right spot.

I think that smoke is saving what little crop we have left. Can you imagine lentils blooming at 35 degrees Celsius. I'm almost scared to say that. This weather pattern is a repeat from when Mount St. Helen erupted, but then we has chunks of volcano ash delivered. It was stinking hot and then this event changed the weather. We started getting actual moisture. Smoke and ashes to the rescue! Wishful thinker, you say!

We were on Keeley Monday. Could see about 100-200 yrds. Had to use compass and depth finder, could barely see sun. Kinda spooky but the fishin was awesome again. Lots of boats never left the mouth of the creek with near zero visibility.

Weird morning here. Fog and smoke but can't tell how much of each.

Same here cotton. Visibility under 80 yards, but am not sure how much is fog, and how much is smoke? It was VERY humid yesterday.
