  4. "Moonrise Over The Gap"

    An #autumn #moon rises over a #harvested #field in the #panhandle of #wv The gap referred to is the area between our section of the ancient #BlueRidge #mountains where sits beautiful #HarpersFerry.

  7. The ongoing #Texas #wildfire has already burned an area nearly twice the size of #Luxembourg

    "Texas wildfire - rising temperatures, winds and dry air hamper firefighting - Personnel battle to keep largest wildfire in state history from turning more of the #Panhandle into a parched wasteland

    The massive #fire has left a charred landscape of scorched #prairie and dead cattle and destroyed as many as 500 structures, including burned-out homes, in the Texas Panhandle. It has merged with another fire and crossed the state line into #Oklahoma, burning more than 1,700 sq miles (4,400 sq km) and was 15% contained, the Texas A&M forest service said Saturday."

For example, a marina in Panama City that had just been put together after a catastrophic hurricane 5 years ago has been completely wiped out today.
