While the winds were blowing, the smoke was heavy but moving. It was being blown generally out to sea. This evening the wind had died down and the smoke is starting to hover in the sky. It was a eery brownish orange color, thick and dark and it blocked the sun.

I spent a lot of time in that church. I spent some time in some other Catholic churches nearby also, depending on which had the convenient Mass schedule.
