Forest fire season starts October 1st in West Virginia. With high pressure being in the area for weeks, it's been pretty dry. It's no surprise to me that there seems to already be a fire going in the hills. I took this photograph of the blaze while looking across the Kanawha river towards Marmet. It's a far cry from years passed when one whole side of the valley would be on fire (I seem to remember a plane that crashed into one of the hills.), but the leaves are already starting to change and are starting to litter the ground. I would not be surprised if this fire continued to grow in size.
