Description	Was asked to take a friend to the airport early this AM and was up before dawn. Couldn't resist the opportunity to go across the street to Harbour Island and see what sort of photos I could get of the fire clouds. Most of these are facing east. I've not really heard the latest as to what's going on with the fires, except that they are still raging all over the county. The big smoke clouds I seen in these pictures were to the east, but as you looked around the horizon, all around was a layer of smoke - wrapped around the city. Wild.
