The view from my window

[rbarata]

That's right! A massive fire, 9 miles from my city, is burning houses down, people dislocated from their homes....Unfortunately, we are used to this...that's the same thing every year...land owners should clean their lands, the law requires it but....
In 2003, the city where I live was completely surrounded by fires, no one could get in or get out, no sun for three weeks, only smoke.
Many of these fires are started by pyromaniacs. With temps of 104 F (40ºC), HR around 15%, high winds, miles and miles of forest...the perfect recipe for disaster.

For now the horizon is all red, a few flames are visible already...Let's see what the night brings.
