In June 2026, a fire started in the grassy area underneath the high-voltage lines, next to the local high voltage substation.
We were told that it was a roadside fire start - their first lie.
The power company then turned off the electricity for everybody in the area - which means everybody lost their primary water supply.
We were lucky that it was not a windy day. The fire burned slowly uphill, to within a 1/4 mile of my own home.
This kicked off 2 1/2 months of "Fire-storm Weather", where we lived with an extreme version of what Europeans call "30 30 30 weather".
"The "30-30-30 rule" in European meteorology and wildfire management describes a dangerous combination of weather conditions that drastically increases the risk and rapid spread of wildfires:
• Temperature: Above 30°C (86°F)
• Humidity: Below 30%
• Wind Speed: Above 30 km/h (approx. 18+ mph)"
The weather we had was an extreme version of 30 30 30.
Fuel humidity - was in the single digits, i.e. EXTREMELY dry.
Temperatures were 35 C/ 95 F, and up.
When the landscape is this dry, when a fire starts, it is almost guaranteed to spread.
It does not burn normally. It burns more like if Pans of Gasoline were spread across the country-side.
OF COURSE, since I live in MAGA Country, the MAGA Morons do not Adapt - ESPECIALLY to a situation related to Climate Change.
The fire-fighting responses that used to work, simply no longer work.
A truck having a problem with one of its tires, that results in a small roadside fire, becomes EVERYBODY'S BUSINESS, and grows to 500+ acres.
We had 4 Wildfire Evacuations in a 2 1/2 month period. 2 "Go Now", and 2 "Be Ready".
Spokane got a Full Dose of Firestorm weather. So did parts of Reno.
Oregon had 2 1/2 million acres burn.
PREDICTION FOR 2027: More of the same.
To get an idea of the kind of weather I'm talking about - you know that condensation you get on your car in the morning ?
During fire-storm weather, there is no condensation in the morning.
If they made a movie about the Camp Fire in Paradise CA in 2018, perhaps one of the early warning scenes would show someone spilling water on the floor, in the early morning while making coffee.
But not having to wipe it up - because that pool of water on the floor, that you might be concerned will damage the fake hardwood, will evaporate within an hour.
It is a kind of dryness that very few humans in North America have experience with.
What does it have to do with PissraHell ?
If the Not So United States took their Global Warming / Climate Change BS SERIOUSLY, they would realize that one of the Primary Issues is, dealing with the increased probability of Wildfires - and the inadequacy of their old methods of fighting fire.
For example, it costs about $5 Million to bury one mile of power line.
There are 5,500,000 miles of power line in the Not So United States.
I estimate that 15% to 20% of those power lines needs to be buried, so that power lines can't be blown down - related to a common source of fire starts.
Call it 1 million miles of above ground power line, that need to be buried.
So "hardening" that one aspect of the Electric Power Grid in the NSUS, so that the power company doesn't have to turn off the electricity when people need it most, would cost $5 Trillion.
Which the US doesn't have - because it spent so much money, since 9-11, helping PissraHell to murder their Arab neighbors.
Now America's bad choices come home to roost.
There are plenty of examples of Urban Interface Wildfires in the US.
Especially since 2017, when Santa Rosa burned - killing about 42 people, and destroying 3000+ homes.
Every Summer since 2017, has provided a steady flow of Wildfire News Porn.
When the Not So United States should have been dealing with the Wildfire Prevention aspects of Manmade Climate Change - they instead spent that money helping PissraHell to murder their Arab neighbors.
IN SHORT, it is my observation that an inadequate response to Outdoor Fire, and Indoor Fire, is one of the primary things that is part of the Collapse of the Not So United States.
This post focussed on Outdoor Fire. The NSUS also has a HUGE problem with indoor fire - related to a side effect of the "Green Economy" and the widespread mis-behavior of Lithium Ion batteries.
For example, in 2024 and 2025, there were 87 to 89 mid-flight fires, started by mis-behaving Lithium Ion Batteries, on American passenger airplanes.
The NSUS is NOT getting a grip on the problem - there have been 80+ Lithium battery fires in 2026, as of the end of September. i.e. there will be 100+ for the whole year.

I think chemtrails contribute to these conditions. Chemtrails have aluminum oxide, which is highly flammable, and which coats the ground and the trees, contributing to the speed of the spread of the fire. And, too, I think the aluminum oxide and the other junk in the chemtrails can be sucked up by the roots of trees, and contribute to tree death, and dead trees burn much better than live trees.

aluminum oxide HAS ALREADY BURNED - and can burn no more.
like Coal (Carbon) burning in the presence of Oxygen, and creating the much-feared CO2. or Hydrogen doing the same thing - to create water.
Same with many other metal oxides and -ates, such as calcium sulfate (plaster of paris).
the pure metal is VERY different from the reacted metal (metal oxide or metal sulfate).
about the Chemtrails - I suspect that some of the chemtrails are tests done using Aluminum powder.
Partially because I interviewed with a company in the mid-80's that was doing similar things, and because the US military has a HUGE budget for any R&D that will increase - even temporarily - the bandwidth of free space.
You don't have to succeed - you just have to have a credible storyline i.e. be good at Viewgraph Engineering.
If you stand up and say, "we're going to lay down a ribbon of aluminum powder, 3 miles long, separated by 2 feet, and broadcast an L Band sine wave down it, to see what happens" - they will actually give you money for that.
I really enjoyed the Chemistry classes at MIT Open Courseware.
ESPECIALLY the nuclear chemistry class taught by Michael Short, and the Solid State chemistry class taught by Donald Sadoway.
Part of the fun is the way that Sadoway responds to cell-phone interruptions. Zero Tolerance.
OCW.MIT.edu
They actually put about 5% of their best classes online - videos of semester long class sessions, homework, everything.
