Brings back memories.

It kind of reminds me of the Dust Bowl.

I'm lucky that my area is only orange right now.

Think you're safe as long as it's not turning Cameron Blue.

Isn't Ridgetop from California? Hope he's doing alright

I have friends in Oregon who were unable to evacuate their town. It looks like they and their home are going to be alright but half the town is gone.

Now my area is in the red.  Again.

[Kimarhi]

Kentucky gets 52" of rain yearly. 


Stay alive. 

[SM]

Does it go higher than red?

[Local Trouble]

Yeah, that link I posted above shows two shades of purple for the really bad areas.

He's in Utah.

[SM]

Yeah, that link I posted above shows two shades of purple for the really bad areas.

Oh right.  Shoulda checked.  I thought the 'red' was bushfire warning level.

[Local Trouble]

I have family in the dark purple area though.  Portland, Oregon.  This year's been pretty f**ked for them.

It's all Antifa's fault.

We had the right blaming everything but climate change when we had our fires at the start of the year.  Mainly the Greens for stopping back burning (despite the Greens stated policy supporting back burning/ fuel reduction burns and them having virtually no power to stop back burning even if they wanted to).

[Local Trouble]

Yeah, we're getting some of that here too...

Trump and Biden clash over U.S. wildfires as campaign turns to climate change

"I think this is more of a management situation," Trump answered, when asked by a reporter if climate change was a factor behind the fires. Without mentioning large wildfires that have raged elsewhere around the world in recent years, from southern Europe to Australia and Siberia, Trump asserted that other countries "don't have this problem."

Apparently you guys don't have this problem.
