Somebody get Mother Nature on the phone and beg her for some early summer monsoon rain (keep the lightning and hail please)!

I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

I've been watching the fire grow from my daughter's house out by the reservoir in Pueblo West..... An awful lot of smoke from very dry timber and grasses. This area has gotten very little rain recently. For those who might be confused, it's Canon City not Canyon.
