(meteorobs) Perseids and forest fire.

[Ed Majden]

    I plan on setting up a couple of spectrographs for tonight's Perseid
max.  Not only do we have to please the weather gods but we have to contend
with a forest fire not all that far from here.  No property is at risk but
the fire has generated a lot of haze and smoke.  A giant Martin Mars water
bomber is on the job so I expect they will have it out by tonight. At least
I hope they will.
