It is pretty smokey all across the city, and there are reports of people getting sick across the city. Here are some pictures by Kevin Steele of what it used to look like, if you forget the area:

I saw the whole thing this morning from my 23rd-floor condo on Front & Spadina. Cat got me up at 5:30 to be fed and I happened to notice a flicker outside. Thought it was lightning & went over to the window to look. I saw flames shooting up into the sky. Watched it all morning. Had an unobstructed view. BUT it never occurred to me to take photos. My camera and I just don't seem to get along.
