I mentioned a couple times how hot and dry it's been since... forever it seems. Crispy, right? Out here is a beautiful national park, Olympic National Park, home of the largest, wettest temperate rainforest in the continental United States, 200 inches of rain a year. It's so hot and dry,
the fucking rainforest is on fire, has been for weeks, and
is expected to remain uncontained until the end of September.

Now in its third month, the Paradise Fire has consumed nearly 1,600 acres of forest, making it the largest since the park was founded. According to the National Wildfire Coordinating Group Web site, officials don’t expect to have the fire contained until Sept. 30.
