Have you noticed the skies look a little dim today? Maybe you noticed the sun seemed kind of strange this morning. Did it look like it was trying to shine through thick clouds or smoke?
Sadly, you're not dreaming.
According to WGME, smoke from those forest fires in Oregon and California has worked its way across the country and has began to dim our skies in New England...
Augusta Firefighter, Jason Mills, joined us to talk about the fire department and, specifically, fire safety. He promises to come in periodically and give us some good solid tips that will keep the fire and rescue department, hopefully, less busy.
This is sort of a journal type post but this morning at about 4 am I woke up out of sound sleep and yelled loud enough to wake up Lynn, “I smell smoke!” It really scared me especially where we have three kids in the house.
