In Colorado, many residents close to the mountains have been suffering from the terrible amount of smoke, and others have been forced to evacuate their homes because the fires are becoming hazardous. On October 21, the smoke from northern Colorado fires like the Cameron’s Peak Fire, East Troublesome Fire, and Calwood Fire, have been heading south east towards the Denver Metro area. Firefighters have been working to stop these extreme wildfires that were affected by drought earlier this year.
