Mercury Rising

OMG!!!!! It's HOT once again! What the hell is happening? The news about wildfire and smoking mountains in B.C.? The news is on and on, non-stop from our television...

It's the same old news every year, year after year. EVERY YEAR! Do we have to get used to that kind of news?

You know Canada, especially British Columbia is covered with forest as if  it's the new frontier and when there are more forests in certain area there's more oxygen and just a spark of flame maybe just a lightning strike can trigger wildfire. Or people camping in that forested area who didn't off the campfire or forgot to throw water on their camp's fire  before leaving the camp. What could be? In the line of the ring of fire?

When a forest has dried trees, old trees and old branches and dry vegetation which is always been the usual case, that also contribute to the fire and easy to be consumed and engulfed with the wildfire in the nearby mountains ravaged by a wildfire of unknown cause. News reporter sometimes blamed the heatwave. When mercury rising causing something to spark or ignite a flame is sometimes a cause. You know those "shooting stars" from the sky which you can only see at night? They are burning debris (meteorites) from outer space and unluckily they fall on the forest and thus cause fire. That's also possible.

It's so dry. When the forest do not receive much water, no rainfall for a week then you know that 's disaster waiting to happen.
