I just remembered yesterday as I was getting on the 427 from Gardiner Express Way - looking over at the downtown skyline and couldn't beleive my own eyes - It was hardly visible - all lost in some brownish/greyish ugly haze...was really scarry actually - couldn't believe it was that bad right from the beginning of the sumemr. :nervous: :nervous: :nervous:
*EDIT*
And don't forget to drink lots of fluids and keep yourselves hydrated my fellow TOTAs |

Well it's not the heat I'm worried about so much, but the fact I could barely see the TO skyline from like 5-10km away |

| I don't think there's a humid city in the world that doesn't look smogy on a hot and humid day. |

I was sitting at a park with my brother last night, and what you could see over the city (at twilight) was just a brownish-yellowish cloud encircling the city. AAAAaaaahhhh, breathe deep :p
Can anyone remember that this past February when it was 12 degrees outside, we allready had a smog alert. In February?!? |

| Living in the 'burbs (Brampton) I don't really see the smog covering T.O. usually but if they don't do something soon we're all gonna have to wear masks just to breath properly. |

Air quality is actually better than it used to be. Its just that they issue smog alerts at a lower reading now. Its just another way to scare the crap out of everyone to get votes.
If you think air quality here is bad i invite you to travel to just about anywhere else. |

Just look a couple of hours across the border (where often a lot of our bad air comes from) and you'll see we're pretty lucky to live where we do.
