## Resource

New England’s skies turned eerie yellow and orange this week — not from a sunset, but from Canadian wildfires. Smoke particles are filtering out blue light, letting warm hues dominate, just like in 2023’s Quebec fire event. Health officials warn vulnerable groups to stay indoors, seal windows, and use air purifiers. Bonus science: same scattering effect can turn storm skies green — a sign of incoming hail. It’s a vivid reminder of how distant fires ripple through our air and daily lives. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
