Wow...just wow...was at work today and this morning I swear I smelled forest fire. It was quite a dull smell but I smelled it none the less....
Throughout the day it kept getting stronger and stronger....I walked from the washroom to the Washery (part of plant where coal gets cleaned) and it was raining ash...
Worried, I walked all the way up to the 7th floor (it's quite high >>) and went out ontop the deck thingy. Usually you could see the mountains from that point, but all I saw was smoke and a red haze on the horizon.
I think I just heard yet another water bomber plane go by...
These fires are ridiculous and scary! I read in the newspaper that there was 650+ fires in BC and 450 of them were caused by human carelessness. Stupid!!!!
Fire scares me, but forest fires are way worse!!! Now there's supposed to be a thunderstorm tonight...great...more fire starters.
That's my rant of the month...or day? >>
