Alan_Mac 48 Report post Posted September 10, 2020 Wow I live in Beaverton Oregon and the amount of smoke outside is unbelievable. My wife's family and friends had to evacuate from the Stayton, Mill City, and Sublimity areas. We now have a full house with my son and his wife and twin 4 year olds, and my daughter inlaw's sisters family from Oregon city. If the fire gets to us (which I don't think it will) I told my wife that I am taking the Mach 1 with me. I cannot believe what has happened down in Detroit. I bet its mostly gone. As on 10:30 am something like 930K acres have burned. Governor Kate said to expect substantial loss of life. :( Here is a good website to see the situation. You can zoom in to see the detail. http://oregonsmoke.blogspot.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alan_Mac 48 Report post Posted September 11, 2020 Ha Ha, unfortunately some of the causes are from humans. My wife said one was caused from a campfire. another was from an RV setting the grass on fire. Air quality is very unhealthy today. My 3m mask with two filters works great outside.

Ridge Runner 1,112 Report post Posted September 16, 2020 Oh gubner newsom ,yes , dry pine trees will explode in a ball of fire with the slightest flame ,try it on your Christmas tree this year please ! can i still say Christmas? On another note ,the lady i bought the property next door from ,her brand new house burned last month up north in Cali. Last night her cabin 20 miles frome me ,burned last night . If ...these morons running this government ..and the tree huggers ,would have allowed the dead trees removal it is very likely these fires would not have happened or al least not been so bad . Doesnt it just make sense that dry brush and dead trees is simply fuel for fires ???$#@%& Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
