The larger fires will create their own weather systems, due to the heat and the winds and the amount of moisture that they put in the air.

Georgia’s Okefenokee Swamp

the fire has been burning for a month and a half?

Quote:

“In the long term, the burning of the swamp will ultimately benefit the swamp wilderness habitat, which is a fire-dependent ecosystem,” said a press release issued from the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge on May 4. Such ecosystems require fire to remain healthy. In the case of southern pine forests, many pine species need fire to remove litter from the ground and release soil nutrients so that new seedlings can grow.

When we were in Florida three weeks ago, the haze was pretty much everywhere. I am sure it didn't start then.

Don't spread this around (private information):
I'm about 20 miles west of Denver, at an altitude of 7,800 feet.
