A couple of days ago it was at 680,000+ acres so far. https://www.koin.com/news/oregon/wildfires-670k-acres-what-we-know/
minus-squareMalyca@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up1·16 days agoI’m so fucking terrified of the rest of the season. I’m on the coast but we had a fire here a few years back. We have like no snow cap :(
