Don't worry we can fix it with AI if we build more datacenters!!!

    Are the numbers the amount of fires? And the little orange dots are the fires?

    Yes, the dots at this scale are mostly major groups of fires. When you zoom in the dots fan out to give more localized info.

    I've zoomed in on Florida in the image attached to this reply so you can see better. You can see the individual fires have the flames icon.

    Gently reminding everyone that a well-fitting N95 mask can filter out a lot of particulates. Particularly helpful for people with asthma going outside, but tbh, on days like this I just wear them everywhere. I'm already wearing them in indoor spaces to protect me from covid, why not keep it on outside to protect me from smoke

    Im near the largest number there and what is scary is this is not the worst it has been. Its kinda funny as we are not located where the wildfires are but the winds or something bring almost all of them to us. North, south, east, and west.
