All over southern Oregon we have fires blowing up right now. The town of Ashland is literally on fire. People trapped on the roof, houses burning, WTF. The authorities are saying stay out, but facebook is blowing up. Yesterday we had clear skies and nothing. Today we had forecasts of 50 mph wind gusts and suddenly the whole world is on fire? We got fires scattered over 40-50 miles, no thunderstorms.

Anybody know what's going on?

Sorry man. This year has seriously sucked. If the Dems win in November, I'm expecting the 7 seals.


Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

Winds and super low humidity.

Toss in a few pyros I'm sure.

It's gotten really serious. Here's their local news for what it's worth.

Real dick comment. I heard about a guy trapped on the roof of his house, and it was on fire, in Ashland. Another lady trapped and calling for help on facebook.

Funny stuff huh jack?

20,000 acres gone up the North Umpqua with little control in sight. Smoke so thick that air attack is tough. Over 100 structures burned on the McKenzie. What bugs us is that none of these fires are lightning caused, all are human caused. In our area no one was working in the woods as we are in Level 4 (shut down) fire status. With the high winds, I will not be surprised to find that some of these fires were power line related. We have seen over 10 such fires in our county this year - and that was without the high winds and low humidity that occurred last night

Maybe started by weed smokers?

Dang sad the wildlife and terrain has to suffer.

You had your chance. The [bleep] commies were in Portland telling you they were coming to the rural areas. You chose to wait them out, now they're at your front door. Should've done something while you had the chance

Yes.

Seasonality for your region.

Not sure why you are surprised?

Ashland is extremely liberal but none of the outlying areas are. I can't figure out where all the fires are and it's so sudden!

There are reportedly 25 or more uncontrolled fires going in California, alone. I don't think all of those just started naturally in nature.

Because they all started today, and they are scattered all over. Almost as if they are being deliberately set. Not saying they are, but we aren't the only ones asking WTF is going on.
