Yesterdays early wind blew out much of the smoke for well most of the day, its back. So we got to at least see the sky for a part of a day and then scary ass plumes of dense smoke rising out of assorted areas. Like some freaky ass Jurassic shit.
Today shit can hit the fan with high winds expected and incoming thunder storms. Then for full on shits and giggles like crap can not get any better check out these two small little tidbits.
1. There is fires surrounding an old copper mine with some of the most acidic if not the most acidic water in the US in treatment areas. If those get damaged it will leak contaminated water down several large streams and more than likely the Sacramento river. No worries though it just can kill fish nearly on contact due to amount of copper in it.
2. Any of you familiar with Shasta Dam and how fucking big it is? Well that damn has several outbuildings that assist in its control. Well guess what! They are under high fire risk this evening. Like fires are nearly right on top of that area and seem to be moving towards it. Naturally its mountainous and also forested so getting anything in and out is damn near impossible, unless you want to hike in at a super fucking steep grade, trust the ancient "fire roads" lol. Or just depend on aerial drops.
