There is a tire plant in my area, about 20 miles north of me. they take old tires and shred them into mulch like stuff for flower beds. Anyway, the place caught fire and has been burning for a few days now. We have warnings out to not spend anytime outdoors because the air quality isn't good and all kinds of stuff. Our towns mayor is even saying no extended time outdoors for family pets.
Let me tell you it sucks. When you go outside you can smell the burning tires. And the air feels really thick.

Here is another link to it also with some more pix.
