The Florence Fire was threatening to become the largest wildfire in state history after expanding to 308,000 acres on the Siskiyou National Forest and adjoining lands in southwestern Oregon and Northern California.
The largest wildfire in Oregon was the Tillamook Fire in 1933 which burned 311,000 acres in the northwest corner of the state.
With this North Wind today and tomorrow, the fire will easily exceed the Tillamook Fire's total acreage burnt, which they still talk about up in that area.
Black Oregon brought to Oregonians by the Green Jihadists who hate people.
They are predicting gusts of wind over 50 MPH for today and tomorrow. There is nothing that you can do re controlling a fire with winds that high.
If they are from the north, Agness will probably be spared for now. However, the small towns along the Smith River in Kali land could be even in more peril than they were yesterday.
If the fire heads south and jumps the Smith River, this will become a two state disaster. The further south you get in Kali, the dryer and hotter it is in August.
Believe it or not, I had the day "off".LOL
I was busy all day running errands (I don't have the time the rest of the week), but managed to fit in a luncheon featuring Gen. Barry McCaffery as the speaker. He was awesome!
Thanks for the pings to other parts of the thread, Gramps!
