Default We're burning up here!

Second week of alternate routes to work. Road closures due to wild fires. Throat is a little raw from the smoke in the air. We need some serious rain, -7 inches currently.

I would happily send some your way. We had almost 2 inches yesterday and another half inch today. More for the rest of the week. Oh well the Zaino lets the water bead nice.

We don't need an accelerant.

It's been a regular thing here in PSL. A fire is west of us now.

Actually no detours today. First time in the last few weeks. Lots of smoke in pockets crossing the marsh lands. Lots of FHP monitoring the road, ready for immediate shut down.
