I was worried it would cross the 49th… until now
Don't worry, the significant wildfire potential stops at the 49th parallel 🙃
NIFC issued their monthly Significant Wildland Fire Potential Outlook today and it shows a little more red for August than the May 1 map. Our first look at September is just as grim for the western states. Also, keep in mind that the not-red portions mean average fire potential, not reduced. 1/

Watching likely the best Xmas movie ever, tradition for Korie & I for the past 10 years & I only caught it this year due to many flights. John MacLean and the flight attendant get by each other in the aisle while John departs with an overstuffed teddy bear. Not today, John. They added a seat column.

My dad taught me how to weld. No one taught him yet he fabricated a 70,000lb cap. overhead rolling crane in his shop in the 70’s. I worked with Terry Ballard RIP, for a few months. An exquisite welder/fabricator. Enriched to review his handwritten texts within these manuals!!
