Iowa City fire

The fire at the dump there seems to have died down some, but not a lot. To see smoke cloud, Google Hawkeye Campus Cam. I started to write out the http address, but it's less typing to just google the above.

Yup Keith they have twice tried to cut thru that rubber chip liner with dozers for a fire break and it has jumped it twice. They are going to let it burn. I can see the smoke all day long from here 12 miles away. I'm just glad the smoke has not come my direction yet. I have my wife's sister and brother in law about 1/2 mile to the south of the landfill but the wind has been out of the south southwest all 3 days. It blew to the town of IC all day today.

One good thing is now they will have to grind more rubber tires to reline it. It will get rid of more old tires that way.

Hi, Gary,

Yep, i can see where a tire fire would be hard to put out. Let her burn, but problem if you are down wind.

Got everything planted? You remember last year I commented that you were a little ahead of everyone I saw along the road nearby, so hope you had good luck this year.

They are promising us 50% chance of rain tomorrow, thanks to that hurricane and a front moving through, but I'll believe it when I see it.
