California is burning... again

In case you haven't turned on the tele, radio, or checked CNN lately, LA is on fire. Hopefully our ZDriver members are okay!



Maybe Hurricane Jimena will put them out? But then it will flood.... it's a lose lose...

Did you have massive amounts of smoke in the sky yesterday over SLC Nismo? There was here in Vernal. And as far as I know the nearest major fire is the one in Cali

Indeed. Though I think there's a big one in Central Utah as well. Here's a pic I took Sunday night:

There is the one in New Harmony that is pretty huge, I think there was another by Scipio. The New Harmony one was huge (drove past it) it covered the entire face of the mountian and the smoke was traveling north/north east, so that's probably what you're getting...

When isn't California on fire? Last few years I've just set up a lawn chair and enjoyed the show.
