I left Alaska many years ago but convective weather and lightening strikes weren't that common. Has that changed or are these the result of local human activity?

That's awful, Blue! I read there was a fire burning near Tanana. I watch a show (can't remember the name) about that place...hope everything turns out ok.

Stay safe!
