And since a few days, there is that smell in the air, of burnt hey and brush. It feels like "back at home" in Southern California, where in the past week also wildfires caused havoc. A large cloud of smoke and dust hangs north of the city, and the wind brings it towards south, towards Leeds. It is meanwhile so strong, that the eyes are burning. I had to close the windows...

Moor fire north of Leeds, in the Ilkley Moor, seen from Western Leeds, near Farnley.
