    0% contained. Ash all over the place here in NE Portland and it smells like a fire is close.

    Had to work in this today. I went to lunch at 10:30 am, and half the sky was kinda greyish like it was just cloudy... you could breathe fine, all that. I went and got food, half hour later walking back the sky was a dark grey/orange and it was harder to breathe. By noon I couldn't finish simple sentences without having to stop to take an extra breath. It was crazy how fast it creeped up. It was eerie all day.

    We need to sacrifice a virgin to the god of fire.

    @BonesJones, when is your football fantasy thing over?

    The thick smoke kept it a good 10 degrees cooler than forecast today, only made it to 91. One silver lining I guess.

    This is apparently right along the highway, so yeah, the lodge is in the line.
