Fires in Siberia

One million hectares = 2.47 million acres = 3,861 sq miles = (62 miles)2.

By contrast Oregon has so far lost about 400,000 acres to fires this year. And yet it's already the 4th-worst year on record.

Manitoba and Ontario are on fire too. It's quite far away from me, nonetheless we're getting some fantastic sunsets with all the smoke.

I just heard there are evacuations going on in three Canadian provinces.
