Have been hearing a bit about the forest fires in NWT - yesterday a news story saying the area burned now exceeds the size of Newfoundland, and smoke is causing problems all the way south to the Dakotas. Some power plants have been shut down due to proximity of the fires.
I recall @crazyheart commenting earlier in the week that the smoke was causing her, and others with breathing problems, to stay indoors.
I've never personally been near a forest fire, but would imagine it to be quite overwhelming, and frightening. Anybody been there, done that?
Some photos from Huff Post - pretty dramatic to see. I'll just post a link (hopefully) so as not to clutter up the thread.
