Still not contained, the fire has eaten over 400k acres since it started (May 30).
More great news; dry and windy weather should push it well over the current champion fire (from 2002) into first place by a fair margin.
See the progress of the beast here.
We hear practically nothing any more about AGW when these disasters pop up. Have we finally begun to notice that when one of these huge things happens - lately anyway - we're no longer looking back to the 1800s or (usually) even the early 1900s to find the previous record-setting event? So we've just kinda quietly accepted the whole thing now?
