Wildfires 2017
Seems like every week I hear about more fires. This morning the sunlight was more orange than normal and ash was on my vehicle. The latest fire I read about was intentionally caused by teens and the use of fireworks. About a week ago we had air quality warnings do to smoke blowing in from Canada I think it was. I heard Montana and California are also having some rather bad fires this summer. One of the worse things is when humans start them and other people pay the price with loss of property. I haven't heard of any deaths which is very good.

o.O Yikes, be careful! Too bad we can't send Harvey's flooding out west. Paired with the heat I've heard is happening in the western half, sounds like that side is what could use these storms, sorta.

Yeah, I've heard about this and it's a shame.

You have probably seen a lot on the news living in Oregon. I've just seen this as of today. "Public demands consequences for 15-year-old Eagle Creek fire suspect." https://www.google.com/amp/s/article...quences_fo.amp Last edited by TurtleWA; 09-14-2017 at 01:23 PM. |

Well, there should be consequences for someone who's messed up enough to set a fire.
