Heard about this on the radio.

California is a beautiful place, no wounder so many choose to live there.

Have the fire seemed to be getting worse with climate change?

Thoughts and prayers, stay safe....

Posted this great piece from The NewsHour, probably the least-biased news source, over on AK. Some ignoramus accused me of a “political agenda” for posting a science and fact-based article, so it was removed (along with the ignorant accusation). Sigh. Fox “News” is keeping good people completely ignorant. Shame.

AQI down to 170 here today. Still unhealthy, but parts of downtown Sacto pegged the needle, over 500 last week. Rain forecast for Wednesday, thankfully.

Worse than ignorant. 'Knowing' stuff that isn't so is worse than not knowing anything.

Finnish President doesn't recall telling Trump Finns do a lot of 'raking' to prevent forest fires

Donny's not just an ignorant fool, he's delusional. 25th amendment time.

Ooops!

Just another example of his lack of ability.

I monitor the CalFire site daily. For the first time today, not a single one of the CA fires is under the command of CalFire. Most are in national forests, so technically roll up to Donny.

The best news affecting me is that the AQI has been excellent the past few days, no smoke, so I can get my full daily walk in!

Today was the first real rain we've had this season. I hope it kills off any residual hot spots. Good thing I don't live near any hills.
