There is a giant cloud of smoke from what looks like a huge fire somewhere near the 238.  Am I going crazy?!  Anyone know anything about this?

I believe it's the large fire out by Gila Bend.  It was on the news yesterday.  Parts of the res roads were closed yesterday when I was trying to pass through.

If you are talking about the large cloud of smoke that can be seen to the northwest, it is called the Ethan fire. It is burning near the intersection of 91st and Baseline near Phoenix International Raceway in Laveen. It's mostly burning the brush in the dry river bed of the Gila River. Even though fires can be very destructive and tragic, I have to admit that it made for a beautiful sunset tonight.

Hey 4 friends here again, the fire was down on 67 th ave it's a farm that went up. Rumor is it was started by lightening. I know it looks scary but it's very far away.

 

Hope your doing fine.
