145,000 acres. Has there ever been a fire that big?
Here in San Diego County the Cedar Fire in 2003 burned about 280,000 acres.
The one this year in Utah burned about 360,000 acres.
In 1988, the Yellowstone NP fire burned almost 800,000.
Maybe not the largest, but a good bet this one might be one of the most expensive.
I don't know. To me, it just seems unimaginable. And it hasn't seemed to slow down much. Hopefully, the air crews are up bright and early tomorrow and the winds subside. Fingers crossed!
