Wildfires, Smoke and Floods: Live Updates - The New York Times

Fire, floods, dead fish: Climate change fuels extreme weather, with no ‘return to normal.’ The sky in Denver was hazy from wildfires on Tuesday as children cooled down in a fountain. Credit.David Zalubowski/Associated Press A summer of misery stretched across much of the United States this week, with flash floods in the Southeast, deadly monsoons in the desert, a crackling-dry fire season across the Pacific Northwest and hazy skies on the East Coast blotting out a baleful red sun. Parts of Montana reached 110 degrees this week — more than 20 degrees above normal — while the nation’s largest wildfire continued to explode in southern Oregon, generating its own weather and prompting state officials to warn residents that they face a long and difficult fire season.

Mitchell Monument from WWII saved from Bootleg Fire

Updated: 6:00 PM PDT July 20, 2021 BLY, Ore. The Mitchell Monument was saved from the Bootleg Fire, according to a spokesperson for the Bootleg Fire. The monument, located near Bly, Ore., exists to commemorate the six people who were killed on American soil during World War II by a bomb sent from Japan called a “Fugo.” It is the only place in America where death resulted from enemy action. Firefighters reduced the would-be fuel for the Bootleg Fire, the largest fire in the country, around the monument. A protective wrap was put on the shrapnel tree that is part of the monument and the interpretive sign. Fire retardant was also dropped from aerial resources, the spokesperson said.

Fire crews save WWII monument to deadly balloon attack

Sherman Shoemaker, 11 The U.S. Forest Service calls the monument “the pivotal attraction of the Mitchell Recreation Area.” The stone memorial is surrounded by picnic tables and fire grills. There’s also the “Shrapnel Tree,” a Ponderosa pine that bears scars from the long-ago bomb explosion and in 2005 was designated an Oregon Heritage Tree. Elsie Mitchell’s parents attended the monument’s 1950 dedication, but their son-in-law wasn’t able to do so. He was in Vietnam spreading the gospel. In 1962, he and two other Christian missionaries were kidnapped by the Viet Cong and disappeared. It’s not known what became of them.
