Also, now that I'm a non-smoker, when the smoke from Mexico burning their crop fields should arrive soon. I imagine my eyes will burn more and I'll get my air purifiers ready.
What crops are those?

Winds should be strong enough to generate blowing dust in parts of the Panhandle and could possibly raise the daily PM10 AQI into the "Moderate" range in the Lubbock area, with highest concentrations from late morning into the early evening. Satellite imagery indicates light amounts of smoke from agricultural burning in Mexico and Central America moving into the Texas coast this morning but surface concentrations do not appear to be enough to raise the daily PM2.5 AQI beyond the "Good" range. Elsewhere in the state, moderate to strong winds and low incoming background levels should help to keep air quality in the "Good" range.

Smoke from agricultural burning in Mexico and Central America should increase in South Texas

Sunday 04/29/12 Outlook
Patchy smoke from agricultural burning in Mexico and Central America should cover much of the middle of the state and will likely spread into Northwest Texas

etc etc
I think Austin is a no-smoke allowed city now, perhaps they can mail a citation for Mexico to pay.

That explains the decline in the quality of the BBQ. I thought it was the influx of Yankees. :mrgreen:

Good to see my old friend again. I had no idea it was two years old.

Actually, it's embarrassing that this thread is only up to 113 pages after more than two years, when the "17y/o" Travon Martin thread is up to 76 pages after a mere three months. :shock:

Yes, but this thread is beautifully politics-free. And fancifully full of non-sequitors.
