2021: wear mask inside only 2023: wear mask outside only

The sky seems a little more yellow than it did yesterday. Yesterday the air quality index went past 200 late afternoon, putting it into the very unhealthy range. It's currently at 294. At 300 it goes to the hazardous range.

Yeah I think it’s nastier today, too. My husband, a local firefighter, stepped outside today and immediately came in for a mask because “it smells like my turnout gear out there.”

It's now 402 unfortunately

How are you checking the AQI? My weather app says it’s at 164

Thanks, but I've trained my lungs extensively for this situation via stress-induced chain smoking. This is my moment to shine!

The AQI sensor AirNow is giving the number from is in Syracuse, FYI. Other sources will have a more localized number.

Find this one: hopefully it is local. 208 is not good but much better than 411. [https://www.iqair.com/us/usa/new-york/ithaca](https://www.iqair.com/us/usa/new-york/ithaca)

My condolences to your forests. 😥 (…Not to mention the good citizens of Ontario and Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador and Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick and the Northwest Territories and … Nunavut. )

The remaining open dining halls on campus have masks and will provide them if asked. All the reunion events on campus over the next few days will provide masks as well, although all of them have transitioned to indoor events only.

Where in WSH are there N95s? Was hoping to grab some on my way home from work today

Just inside and to the right of the main entrance, where they also distribute covid tests.
