If the last 3 years are any indicator, living in SF and the west coast in general means putting up with 2-3 months of choking, dangerous wild fire smoke every year too. It was a novelty for one summer but is slowly going to poison and cause serious long term harm the more it continues. I don't think people realize how unlivable the west coast is quickly becoming.
- Psyonic 5y agoThis year, the smoke from the California fires was actually much worse in Colorado & Utah than the bay area proper. You can't necessarily escape this by moving.
- jeffbee 5y agoTrue, but it's going to be bad some years. This year I expect an outright disaster, considering we've had the driest winter in 150+ years of recorded history. Probably it's going to be unbreathable at certain points.
- pinephoneguy 5y agoOn rethinking my statement I've realized I should encourage the Californians to stay in California and not spread communism to the rest of the country. So yeah, you can't escape the bad things by moving, stay there.
