I mean, wtf. I have never heard of these places so three in the morning I am scramblin with google to find out how close that is to me. I woke early this morning to such an orange sky with sun coming up of a smoked filled sky. It was awewsome in its doom scenario. And we have days of heat and wind. No rain in sight.
