Whatever Trump says must be right. The climate “hoax” is clearly nothing to stress about…

  2. This weekend's photo had to be of the Cairngorms. One of my most favourite places to stay.

    My thoughts and prayers go to everyone impacted by the devastating wildfire that has been burning out of control in the area for the last 10 days.

  3. It's so depressing using NASA resources to track wildfires in *Scotland* 😞

    I have a lot of family ties to the rural Cairngorms area of the Scottish Highlands. We've never wanted rain more than now.

  7. Nethy full film with subtitles

    Another fascinating watch. Jimmy Macleod, head forester of a tree nursery (Dell Nursery) near Nethy Bridge that ceased operation in 1984.

    He talks about the effect changing from horses and plough to tractors had on the soil and drainage, using kilns for extracting seeds from Scots pine cones, planting and much more.

  9. Gingerman: Episode 319-Nethybridge

    For anyone interested in what the area around Nethy Bridge. Video taken spring 2025. Brilliant watch.

    Contains some drone footage to give you an idea of how close and extensive the wooded areas on the hills are to the houses and people living there. You can understand the evacuation better.

    Passed through it on my recent trip to Tomintoul.

    Fingers crossed that the area escapes the worst 🤞

  11. With a #Wildfire in the #Cairngorms blowing smoke over us (but not near me), I'm reacting in typical nerd fashion:

    Get an API key for NASA FIRMS -- Fire Information for Resource Management System -- then download CSV data and try to plot it on a map with Gnuplot.

  16. Starting to smell the smoke from the #Cairngorms nearly as far as Inverurie. Bit of a haze obscuring the hills which might be a result of it.

  18. t's raining! Wonderful! Hopefully there's much more to come and it dampens down the Cairngorm fires. Can't see the smoke anymore, can't see the Cairngorms, just wet grey clouds. #Cairngorms

  20. The #Cairngorms #wildfire has now been burning for ten days, with high winds and continued dry conditions making containment difficult.

    Last night’s flare-up at the site near #Glenmore coupled with the changeable wind direction has today sent large volumes of smoke all over the north-east of Scotland, with smoke reported as far away as #Aberdeen city, 59 miles away.

  23. View across Strathspey to the Cairngorms & the smoke from the wildfire that's been burning for six days now. Thankfully it's under control, due to the great efforts of many people. Huge thanks to them all. #Cairngorms

  25. It's smoggy out there. Can barely make out Glen Turret beyond Crieff 10mi away. I'm thinking a lot of this is probably due to the Cairngorms wildfire 🔥 blown down on a northerly breeze :/
