00:00it's already here, basically, here meaning in New York City. But we probably haven't seen the
00:07worst of it yet for New York City. We probably haven't seen the worst of it yet for the Great
00:11Lakes and the upstate in New England yet either. So yeah, it's here right now. The current AQIs,
00:21the air quality indices are very much in the unhealthy range, unhealthy for all groups,
00:27not just sensitive groups. The forecast is showing that by tomorrow morning, tomorrow
00:34afternoon, it could be up another category into the very unhealthy or possibly even the highest
00:41category, which is the hazardous. So it's on its way. It's already here. It's on its way. And we
00:47probably haven't seen the worst of it yet right at this exact moment. We could say pretty confidently
00:53that the air quality levels are going to be into the unhealthy, if not very unhealthy range tomorrow
01:01in vast swaths of the Mid-Atlantic, the Northeast and the Great Lakes, and probably New England as well,
01:09actually. So Saturday, there's rain in the forecast for the tri-state New York area. So we do have kind
01:28of a ceiling, so to speak, on how bad this can get by Saturday. I'm expecting by Saturday with the
01:36rain,
01:36things should be a little bit better. The first big wave of smoke that we've seen will also have
01:43cleared out. It'll have gone over into the ocean, you know, transported further downwind.
