We were supposed to have bright sunny, perfectly blue sky today. You could see the sun, but the sky was a hazy white color and the temp which was supposed to get to 70 degrees, topped out around 60. WeatherChick said the haze was smoke from the fires.
Reports say 35 people have died. Are there any reports as to why they were killed. It seems to me that with these huge fires, even though they move fast, there should be enough warning so people can leave. I am puzzled by this. Are some folks just magnificently stupid and refuse to evacuate?
