I saw a plume model that put the “fall out” over us about a week ago.

Edit: I should also mention that as I recall the concentrations of pollutants that were in the atmosphere above us were very small.

interesting. So maybe not the toxic cloud. Whitefield is in a valley surrounded by mountains. Wondering if they just acted like a trap and the chemicals have begun to sink down and accumulate enough to produce a smell. We're supposed to get some rain. Wonder if it's worth collecting some of it and testing PH.

I planned to put out a bucket and test the rain today. Saw some posts from MA yesterday with what looked like acid rain on a vehicle.

The more the feds stay quiet about this the more worried I get.

What’s the point? We already know every water source is contaminated with PFAS. 500 miles away, a little chemical warfare agent isn’t gonna be noticeable in the chemical stew we’re all existing within.

Things are just starting to fall apart. It’s not gonna get better. It’s too far gone. Go do something fun this weekend instead. Memento mori.

I just went outside again and it’s started raining and now it smells terrible at my house, smells like someone lit a couch on fire. It didn’t smell at 6 when I fed my goats. Now I’m wondering because it’s a very unusual smell for my area.
