It really has! We've been smelling smoke every day! Our air purifiers are working overtime! Very scary to see what's happening. Long Island has been getting hit pretty hard. It was never like that before. Yet I remember when the Pine Barrens went on fire!
@Spagesgallo1 I remember the Pine Barren's fire too. It is scary!
Yes! That was some pretty scary shit. I remember the fires jumped the road and set the other side on fire! Please stay safe. Hopefully the rain that is coming will help calm things down!
@Spagesgallo1 I remember that, I was stuck with a friend on Sunrise Highway, we were coming back from out east
Has your area been impacted by the wildfires? I know Medford has.
@Spagesgallo1 No, not yet. 🤞
Thank goodness! Let's keep it that way! 🙏
@Spagesgallo1 Raining now!

What??? OMG! How absolutely frightening! Even though it happened decades ago. It still feels like it happened only yesterday.
