Peak District Fires..... anyone here affected by the smoke ?

Warrington must be 25-30 miles away but people nearer the centre are complaining of the smell and the smoke.
An expert said it because the weather heat is not allowing the smoke to go upwards so it has to drift sideways.
I live in north Warrington so its not bad although I can smell it as I type.

Was bad this morning in Bredbury, but was OK a mile further South and into Cheshire (Poynton/Woodford) but when I came back from a ride it was still around. Wind has changed slightly now, so no smell but can see the smoke plume from our
house. Strong winds still.. We could smell it worse outside and in our bedroom.

Conwy Mountain is also on fire, but that should be blowing West

I hope all my brothers, sisters, and Accrington based members of the nobility, are safe from this.
