Pretty damn smokey this morning. Hard to tell by the pic but it is very smokey. Hope all stay safe.

    That's a lot of smoke when your smelling it all day and dealing with dry burning eyes. . I know we all love the smoke off the BGE, but smelling wildfires isn't fun. Hopefully they'll be contained soon.

    I've been seeing photos of the fires in Jasper NP on my Facebook feed. Praying for some rain in Alberta.

    Tough going there. It is an awful situation. Stay safe. I have been around my share, I feel for you my man. Stay safe.

    western Canada is on fire.  We have firefighters from the USA, Austrailia, Mexico, volunteer fire departments from all over Canada and 1000 military personel are helping fight our fires.  We have borrowed the largest firefighting helicopter in NA from Montana to help fight a fire that is threatening a large community in northern Saskatchewan.  8000 people in Saskatchewan have been evcactuated, 400000 hectares are burning and dozens of homes and cabins have burned in Saskatchewan.

    So much more is burning across Alberta and BC

    Agreed, I should not have just mentioned Alberta, it's bad everywhere.
