Moscow is breathing more freely after overnight rain washed away much of the suffocating smoke which has been tormenting the Russian capital for days.
Sounds like Southern California during the summer/ Good luck and here is to lots of rain and cool weather.
My heart go's out to all those affected by the fires in Russia and I hope that the fires are put out soon. With Kindest Regards, Steve Larson
