OT, largest forest fire in Swedens modern history
Hey guys
I am not the nervous type of guy, But this is just a couple of miles from my house. Luckely I have the wind in the back. But it changes all the time.

We've had to stand by and watch as several million acres of beautiful forest burned, usually because of stupid acts by people, poor planning by the Forest Service, and a heck of a drought. It fundamentally changes entire sections of the state, will not recover in my lifetime. I hope it doesn't get that way for you!

Yesterday was a good day as the firefighters was able to prevent the spread with a MAJOR effort and some luck with the weather.
Today the waterbomber from france has arrived. Today they will start trying to put some of the fire out instead of focusing on preventing the spread.
I keep my fingers crossed for low winds, lower temperature and hopefully some rain (actually a lot of rain, but I am not picky)
I cant imagine living with this threat every year, like some of you guys do.

Fortunately, I have never been in a big fire, but Australia being such a dry country in many places and with a lot of bush that the greenies stop being cleared out for hazard reduction, has a lot of forest fires. Two big ones in recent years killed 75 in one and 173 in another. Many injured and lots of homes lost. I hope all goes well for your country and you and your family.
