Yes, Skillman is a little bit past Princeton. Burlington, though -- my brother lives in Burlington Twp. Yikes.

I'm probably 15/20 miles from the fire, and it is nasty outside. This afternoon the smoke came our way, and we can't go outside still without our eyes and throats burning. It crossed 206, and the last news we had was that it was not under control yet.

Hope everyone stays safe, and we get a huge, soaking rain quickly.

I'm near Clementon/Stratford area and it's not that bad at home but when i went to Target on white horse it was really strong

I'm in Roosevelt and the smell here yesterday was really strong. It got better as the day went on, but early in the morning it was just terrible.
