Incredibly smoky here in Perth at the moment. All doors and windows shut and when you go outside it is really unpleasant. Apparently due to prescribed burns combined with a day that has turned very still. The photo has not been edited.

Not where I am in a northern coastal suburb. Now as the sun is setting, I can see some smoke on the western horizon, making for a very red sunset. Prescribed burns can be very disturbing for people with breathing difficulties. I am often amazed the amount of smoke up here when up there are fires way down in the southwest!
Because of this fire in WA a Royal commission recommended prescribed burns.It's not too bad in the western suburbs. Seems further east is more impacted.

I'm not so sure about these prescribed burns. Every year this time of year is ruined by days of smoke affecting two million people. Really don't see that this is a good thing.
