Ordinarily Australian bush firefighters would be heading over to help out.... not sure that can happen in this current world  :-\

That's another unfortunate type of casualty of the pandemic â€" not getting that help.

Is Colorado burning again?

It is. 

Fire 1:  July 31, 130,000 acres, 20% containment
Fire 2:  Aug. 4, 20,000 acres, 3% containment
Fire 3:  Aug. 10, 30,000+ acres, 30% containment 
This one has one of the 2 interstates shut down causing all kinds of logistical issues across the rockies as you can imagine.
Fire 4:  Aug. 13, 18,000+ acres, 0% containment

Of these 4, 3 are human caused.   [bang] [bang] [bang]

Several other fires, smaller acreage and each are 100% contained

We've had 60+ 90 degree days across the state, high winds and no precip.


Anyone up for a little rain dancing??   :)

Typical New Mexico fashion, it rained like mad here.  For about 12 minutes.

Doing good.  Finalizing the new work arrangement for my side gig tomorrow.

Morning.   

Off to the work races a bit later than usual today.   But.  I don't entirely care.


Stay cool people.   99 digits on tap here.   [thumbsdown]
