I took a drive up yesterday evening - mental! Burning for three days. So many animals must've been wiped out by this :(

Came out of Malin Head yesterday and you could see over and it looked like a volcano had erupted with all the smoke

How much is burned, now?

It's hard to tell when you're not that familiar with the area.

I'm going to try to get a run up at the weekend to see how much damage was done.

Arrival of rain will be welcomed for sure.

Roads were wet when I got up this morning, and I think its due to rain most days now until middle of next week.
