The world is still on fire

Be it London or a few miles away, the world is still on fire.

The air around here has been smokey and when you step outside you can smell something burning, even though I live about 10mi away. The smoke from the fire has reached D.C. and over 3,000 acres have been destroyed.

There's been an air quality alert for the past few days and it doesn't look like the fire's going to stop any time soon. We need rain. And soon. At least 6" of it from what the reports say.

We might get that rain on Sunday. There's supposed to be a thunderstorm and lots of rain that day. Hopefully not much more of the refuge will be eaten by then.
