I can't express to my non-Oregon friends just how alarming and exceptional the Bootleg Fire is. A fire of this size and intensity at this point in the season is virtually unheard of. It is a literal five-alarm wake-up call.
#SATELLITE SPOTLIGHT: @NOAA's #GOES17🛰️ is tracking the #smoke from several #wildfires across #Oregon this week, including the massive #BootlegFire seen here late yesterday. According to @inciweb, the fire has grown to more than 200,000 acres this morning.

Thank you for your efforts, Senator. It must be unbelievably frustrating for you to be surrounded by so many colleagues in denial.
