I went out on our front steps yesterday evening and took these pics:
Forest fires in Alberta.
We don’t worry too much about them out here on the Prairie –
and wouldn’t even know they were happening –
if it wasn’t for the smoke.
HOWEVER, most of Canada is FOREST.
Check any map.
So this is a big problem.
AND NOW in the age of Climate Change
it’s amplified. Considerably.
Almost like living on another planet.
Feel the heat.
Scary! Fingers crossed that it doesn’t get to you, JC
We’re safe here in Calgary, but it can be a tragic situation for a lot people. Having your house burn down happens to a lot of folks.
Let’s pray for rain, a lot of rain.
Yup. Feel that heat. The jungle-like humidity. And hope against hope that somehow, we find our way out of the mess we created.
First it rained for a month and a half. Then we get a heat wave! They’ve evacuated Jasper Park I guess?
Hoping things stay safe for you.
There’s fires everywhere it seems. We have lots of company.
