The air is gross!

This may be of interest to those of you who live in Maryland (and perhaps the surrounding areas):

I learned today that Maryland has a coding system for levels of air quality, kind of like the National Threat Advisory. More importantly I learned that we are currently at a code red, which means the air quality is extremely unhealthy!

According to the Montgomery County Web Site, a code red occurs when temperatures reach the 90's - 100's, there's a lack of wind and a little chance of rain. When this happens, people are suggested to limit outdoor activities, driving and refeuling cars.

With that said, be careful out there!
