Okay, so, here's the deal. I am not going to deal with this "pray for Harvey" stuff along side a post about Montana wildfires. It's terrible what's going on down there but I shouldn't have to validate it in a post about the terrible things I'm currently experiencing. It's feminists explaining they don't hate men and I can't deal with it. Honestly it's very tiring, because both areas have thousands of people being evacuated, it's just two different natural disasters.
Now, onto what I really want to talk about. Currently there are over 40 wildfires in the state of Montana.
In the last month(correct me if I'm wrong) there has been 60 lightning strikes that have started fires in Montana and surrounding states. 40 of those have been in Montana.
Montana filed for natural disaster and aid from the government in July when our cattle fields were in flame. We're only getting it in this last week.
I currently live in a part of Montana where the air is code red for most of the time because of smoke in the air. Last night, we had a red moon and almost hit the "very unhealthy" level because ash particles were in the air THAT WE BREATH. There were places last night that were literally hazardous to breath. Those places have been cleared up a little by wind, but that's still such a scary thought. That I possibly couldn't even breath air outside of my own home.(yes there are places like that that people live in, but this post in not talking about those places so please kindly keep those thoughts to yourself.)
Some officials working on this disaster have actually said that only snow will stop this fire season. We are praying for rain and, hopefully if it can get cold enough even with a blanket of smoke over us, snow.
