The end is nigh...or something like that.

The impact of the smoke from the California wildfires on our view of the sun, about 40 minutes before dusk. The low-lying smoky layer of air has been hanging around for days. The climate is drier so there is more fuel than ever. The western US is a tinder-box just waiting for a lightning strike or a stupid human to light the touch paper. Climate change deniers are welcome to come out for a camping trip. We can let karma sort them out.
