Not as dramatic as other locations, but there's been a small fire burning on the lower slopes of the Coinneachan for a couple of days now. This evening, the layer of brown smog cloud was very apparent, lying low above the horizon for 180º round from Glen Turret to the Ochil hills.

I discovered an overlay in Windy for where all the fires are and it's more than a bit worrying.

The only good thing that will come from the EPA rollback of regulations that will guarantee the poisoning of our air and water is that the elderly MAGA who voted Republican will be dead by the time the next generation successfully votes to clean up the mess that generation caused.
