While I appreciate the joke posts, I can't help but feel for those people. Can you imagine being burned, or worse, dying of smoke inhalation. Just awful.

The authorities have come under pressure to explain the magnitude of effects of the heatwave, which meteorologists have said is the worst in the 1,000-year history of Russia.

...

The heatwave has had a huge impact on all areas of Russian society and economists warned Tuesday the record temperatures could have cost the country up to 15 billion dollars and undercut a modest economic revival.

HAARP.

But seriously. All of y'all keep cracking Katri...I mean, Russian fire-storm jokes. :rolleyes:
 
Maybe Prime Minister Putin should take his shirt off and fight this fire. THat dude gives me the creeps.

Ask and ye shall receive...

MOSCOW (AP) - Prime Minister Vladimir Putin climbed into a firefighting plane Tuesday and dumped water on two of the hundreds of wildfires sweeping through western Russia and cloaking Moscow in a suffocating smog.

Putin has been a very visible leader in the battle against the fires, which have caused billions of dollars in damage and left thousands homeless in the past two weeks. He has demanded that soldiers help overstretched firefighting brigades and has walked through smoldering villages, consoling residents and promising them new homes by fall.

But with his once sky-high approval ratings dropping - and sociologists warning that discontent could grow as the fires and a severe drought take their toll - Putin has not let up.
