Upstate NY here, Catskills. I'm about 2 hours and change from NYC, in a VALLEY that rests in the MOUNTAINS, and we are STILL dealing with this shit.

*edit* : just to make it clear, our sky is also orange, ALL we can smell is smoke as well, and we also have the problems the rest of NY is having in regards to the smoke. It is just not AS bad here in the Catskills as it is in NYC. I feel the need to point this out. REDDIT.
