In June, #FortAlbany #FirstNation was #evacuated due to #wildfires .
The #Cree community is near the #JamesBay coast and surrounded by the #boreal forest and peatlands.
Community members shared photos and videos on social media of massive smoke plumes above the forest's edge, with the low-lying #peatlands nearby.

I have shown here a few times already beautiful vortices in cloud fields downwind from islands. These vortices are a reflection of two-dimensional turbulence in the atmosphere which behaves as a fluid. Occasionally one can see such vortices also in water, when made visible by ice, for instance. This is a view of melting ice on #JamesBay and the southern #HudsonBay in #Canada. Image taken by @nasa satellite #Aqua on 28 June 2023.

Baby it's cold outside...
Swapping them out about every three hours today. So long as the one inside thaws faster than the one outside freezes.

In the mid-1950s, my mother, a newly graduated nurse went to Moose Factory on #JamesBay in Ontario to work in the hospital there. She bought this little deer skin pouch with exquisite beading then and many years later gave it to me. I’ve treasured it ever since. Gifting it to me was like passing the torch since I became a #nurse as well.
