Post subject:  No Belmont Racing Thursday

The orange and yellow haze on Long Island was horrendous Wednesday afternoon. When I went outside to feed some cats the stink of burning wood hung heavily in the bad air.

This morning (Thursday) we've got hazy sunshine, less stink and no yellow funk hanging in the air. Not yet anyway.

From today's Newsday:

The Belmont Stakes — the most highly attended annual sporting event on Long Island — is expected to proceed on Saturday evening, despite the poor air quality stemming from Canadian wildfires, Nassau County and racing officials said Wednesday.

State officials have urged New Yorkers to limit outdoor activities and many school districts preemptively canceled outside activities Wednesday, with New York City registering the world's worst air quality.
