Yikes!

Keep an eye on Alaska's many wildfires with this map.

"Last updated: 24 Jul 2016, 11:50. Data from the Alaska Interagency Coordination Center, which is currently tracking 176 fires in Alaska (active, smoldering or in the process of being demobilized). Circles represent the size, but not the shape, of the fire. This page is hosted by the University of Alaska Fairbanks Arctic Region Supercomputing Center as part of the UAF SMOKE forecast project."

Many of the circles are red, representing fires covering more than 2500 acres each. 2560 acres is 4 square miles.

Global warming global schwarming, right? Drill, Baby, drill!
