The fires will be devastating. In CA., we had our worst fire season ever last year but I'm sure that we can top it. Oregon will have to get used to catastrophic fires and unlivable weather. Maybe 10 years ago, it had the most livable climate on earth.
This is happening fast.

Why complain about it? Hey, TV news reported that Portland's high was 5 degrees cooler than the high in Death Valley.
