Hey Canada--Oklahoma has your climate! We were supposed to be hot and dry by the end of April but it's chilly and wet down here! Will be happy to trade you before our wheat crops die of mold!

Woke up to #smoke. It has begun.
The town of Fort Nelson in NE British Columbia is being evacuated. A "zombie fire" smouldering overwinter flared up rapidly yesterday. Everywhere in western Canada is very dry due to drought.
The smoke is heavy even here in Alberta.

This is very nice... See that familiar-looking banyan? Lahaina....

Many have concluded the tree, like most of the town, is gone, forever.
Some (self incuded) put some hope into the fact that it has so many huge roots, under ground and pavement...

And the truth? There is hope, and a guardian-angel arborist, who assesses the damage and is nurturaing from roots to charred branches. Thin-slice: She's hopeful for some buds in a few months, after restoring sap and emerging from shock....

Hawaii wildfires burn through a historic town on Maui and kill at least 36 people

Wildfires, whipped by strong winds from Hurricane Dora passing far to the south, took the island of Maui by surprise, leaving behind burned-out cars on once busy streets and smoking piles of rubble where historic buildings had stood.

Well, this is a sign of serious...

I just watched a news show saying Quebec's smoke is now creating a health/visibility concern far away, including New York.

So I looked West, camera in hand, and see this! It's been somewhat dark - it's not sunset yet - but I didn't realize how dark!
Worse than the "Sahara dust" a few years back (well, less Pinkish) ... I can't even see New Jersey, or a passing boat, clearly through the haze... This is West bank of Manhattan looking West (North/Canada to the right). Usually the other side is crisp, piers, condos, etc.

And usually this would be blue with the beginnings of a golden or orange sunset. Can't even see any sign of the sun. Thick...
