News yesterday was around 25 forest fires and in total around 60 fires going on. Right now.
One of the municipalities that's really badly affected is Ragunda in the northern part of the country. It's one of Sweden's poorest municipalities, yet it produces 5% of the country's electricity. I've seen calls on social media for people to volunteer if they're even remotely close.
One of the fires in Ljusdal has grown from 20 km yesterday to 80 km today.

But climate change isn't real, right guys

Well I'm in Metro-Van. There is some infrastructure, but there is only so much that can be done, especially when it's not a matter of 'if' there will be forest fires this summer, but when and how much.

At one point i tagged a bunch of the Swedes so i wouldn't forget.
I got atleast 8 on that list, but some may have quit cause there's a few i have no memory of.

Also, my platoon leader just asked if i wanted to volunteer for the firefighting.
I don't know if i should or not

It was down at 46 fires this morning.
And then a big thunder storm appeared, throwing around over 3400 lightnings per hour, starting new fires.
Experts says that it needs to rain for two weeks to extinguish those impossible fires.

Might also be the bottle was too good an insulator. Even though the inside was ice it didn't feel that cool to the touch.
