Re: The Non-Stop Smell of Wildfires
In order to get to Atlantic City I have to drive on the Garden State Parkway.
The Garden State runs through the Pine Barrens ( home of the legendary New Jersey Devil. A few years back the Pine Barrens caught on fire due to brush fires. It smelled of smoke and fire for a few years following the fires.

I just came back from there and there was a definite haze obscuring the Strip. The only time it's every been completely obscured from my old place (one mile east of Strip) was during a sand storm.

Re: The Non-Stop Smell of Wildfires
Very rare around here, but I remember this one. I was living about 30 miles NE of the fires and could remember the smell.
