Taken earlier today in Superior, CO as the fires raged across the area. From the Denver Post.

I guess that's why I never heard about it. Also never even knew that was a word (outside of meaning "right" in Spanish)
I only heard about it because I am terminally online. I remember telling people about it and they were like :jesse-wtf: till I showed them actual posts/local news about it.
This GIF shows the extent of the damage pretty well
Near total removal of the tree canopy in the area outlined. And it was fast.
In China government hides catastrophe from citizen etc et al
also mfw the flattened area is bigger than fucking New Jersey
It destroyed like a third of the entire US corn crop IIRC
Or the massive hurricane Ida that has my relatives still living in friends homes while their houses remain gutted.
Oh shit I did forget about the heat domes already
