Hazy Skies

We must be surrounded by fires, but since we are unable to get LOCAL news, not really sure yet! Gonna have to check it out and find out where all the smoke is coming from!! The smell of smoke is thick in the air and you cannot see the foothills from here.....scary!!! :cry:

We're the same way here (no mountains tho :wink: )-- Must have got a dozen calls from people wanting to know where the fires were (everyone must forget I'm retired from both the Sheriff and the Firewarden jobs :roll: ) But the dispatch and weather boys tell me that whats coming in here is coming out of Idaho...That website Tap just posted looks like there could be smoke coming in with the Jet stream all the way from California...

this haze moved in so darned quick (within a matter of a few hours, tops!!) that we sort of figured it must be relatively close....one of the "in-laws" says there is a fire south of here near Hebgen Lake (where we went camping a few weeks ago)!!! Hate to see it happen!! :(

We have major smoke...had to go to Belgrade for a quick trip today, the fire south of Livingston is pretty big, and it looks like the jet stream is bringing some of that smoke all the way up to you, OT.

BTW, sw found another fire website, pretty new, www.inciweb.org.

Ranch wife? Was that a refrigerator I saw on the front porch? I thought you had to live in Alabama to have a fridge on the porch. I like my back porch fridge. It is great for drinks and stuff so you don’t have to go inside every time you want something.

You can smell the smoke in the air here and it is really smoky - hazy. We are about 4 hours from Chadron. I can't imagine being there. I hope the fires will stop soon.
