Thread: Where There's Smoke/There's Fire

Hi All,

Well my home state of Washington is literally 'Burning Up' and it's not from High Temperatures, it's from wild fires. Here's a link to a map to show what I'm talking about:

NWCC :: Home

Here's the view from the front porch of the Boars Nest:





The density of the smoke in the WW Valley was much worse earlier in the day but I was at work and couldn't take any pictures.

I do hope some rain comes and comes soon!

Pray it is only smoke and not embers.

Same here in Kali

What I pray for is that no other fire fighters die battling the blazes. One that did was a student at Whitman College here in WW.

Sorry I forgot to include an important link. I do hope it will work for everyone:

This is what we are using Roy

InciWeb the Incident Information System: Idaho Panhandle National Forest Incidents

and this

GeoMAC


The second one is pretty accurate as it shows the actual size of the fire

Toady the wind shifted for the good at our place and we have good clear air and we needed it bad

We have had actual ash falling for 10 days now you can see it rise as you walk through the grass

Spent all day Tues and Wed cutting trails, low branches and moving deadfall around the property I can't imagine how hard it is for the Firefighters, I was beat down just from what I did

Stay safe

My friend, first and foremost, You and that lovely bride stay safe! WW isn't in any danger at the time.

Thanks for the Very Useful Links!

Again, Stay Safe and Be Well!

Roy

You all stay safe
Do not know how the firefighters can work in 110 deg heat

Roy, you and Glen need to keep safe. Both of you will be in my thoughts with my best wishes!

Sometimes even out on the fireline you have to take the time to smile

This was sent from a fireline over in WA


Look really close and you will see it

Unless my eyesight is worse than I thought I see the rough shape of a rabbit in the grass.
