Hi folks.
Reporting from Abbotsford BC, I can see and smell the smoke here, and Kelowna is a good 4 hour drive away. The last few years have been brutal fire seasons in BC, but the drought this year seems to be the worst yet. Normally, this is a rainforest. It's a little uncanny, considering this town is normally a suburban sea of green lawns, to see almost all of them tan and parched. These are the people who usually scream about the gubmint and wave flags on overpasses, but even they have stopped watering and washing cars etc. For it to have gotten through to that demographic is a definite indicator that things are not ok here.
