AZ is on fire. I had a fire erupt in a dry wash about 2 miles from my house a few days ago. These fires can erupt and get crazy in just a few minutes due to dry weeds & windy conditions.
The amount of air traffic attacking the fire was amazing. Some of this resembles combat planes hitting ground targets.
If you go to the twitter link, you can see lots of clips of the action. The video of the helo sucking water at the golf course is amazing.

There are several major burns going on with some others almost out. People living in these areas are dealing with evacuations and the prospect of losing their homes.
