The Hoopa tribe need a break, virus, fires. A tragedy unfolding before our eyes
Right on Phyllis!
Air quality up here along the trinity river is really bad, can’t see the ridge across the river. You can taste it.
https://www.fire.ca.gov/incidents/ and https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/ show the fire on their maps but provide no information. You have to drill down on Hoopa and as you continue to drill down you can see the outline of the fire, shown in red on Cal Fire’s site and grey on InciWeb.
Nice! I had missed that map. I’ve made a screenshot and uploaded below.
COPD bronchitis lung infections don’t worry it’s not c-19
Your COVID 19 comment has nothing to do with this fire. Your sarcasm is unnecessary and doesn’t belong in this post. Why insult poor victims of COPD? We are well aware of the danger fire smoke (visible) and COVID infected people not wearing masks (a much bigger threat) not visible! Check Humboldt’s latest COVID stats. We’re going the wrong direction.
To the people of Hoopa, I am worried about everyone! I love you all! Hang in there everyone. Kima:w Medical Center, I wish you all the best, I know your doing all you can, you always are! J Guy
