More grass fires started today, I hope everyone here wasnt affected. I noticed this in the article though.
I am guessing that is the airport where we autoX, there isnt another one around.Quote:
In another fire west of Fort Worth, structures were reported damaged and residents were being evacuated near the Mineral Wells airport, Weaver said.

I took a picture of the sun tonight from Tulsa, OK, as it was being filtered through a huge smoke cloud... and then stopped off at a scenic turnout and tried to take some pictures of a large grass fire but the wind was blowing the car too much to get a real clear picture with the very long aperture times I was having to use taking the pics at night.
There were a lot of fires belching smoke all over. It was wild - crystal clear in Missouri, but within 4 miles of crossing the Oklahoma border there were fires all over and hazy smoke filled skies.

Yeah, I noticed the thick haze the other day. The fallout from the fires is causing hell for my allergies. :( Hopefully we'll get some good rain before the fires cause too much more damage.Quote:

Time to rake the leaves, scalp the yard and make sure the automatic spriklers are working properly.
