close. it was April 11th, 2012.
for those that don't know spring is the driest time of year and sometimes bring wild fires. large populations of flammable pine trees don't help the situation.
it was very eerie to see that event in person. blocked out sunlight to the point that you could stare at the sun (not that i did, i'm not an idiot)
i remember, hmm.. around May 2013 there was a wild fire in my neighborhood! the forest was burning behind my house and one of the other houses caught on fire! parts of the neighborhood were under a mandatory evacuation and almost reached my part of the neighborhood. thankfully the firefighters contained it in time.
Southern California gets most of the attention in the realm of wild fires but it is definitely a problem in Southern Georgia and Florida as well.

also that is a good point about rainy days. so you are saying that rainy days don't have frosty mornings? cloud cover keeps warm air in (warm air relative to cold air) so frost doesn't form in the morning like it does when the skies are clear and you have radiative cooling.

Rainy days can start with a frosty morning, but rain has a warming effect on the ground, as most rain bearing systems come from the north.
Air frost here only forms with totally clear skies -even a little bit of cloud will keep the temperature above freezing.
Good photos btw
For wawa1992. I'm not too good with the night ones, so I'll take a wild guess and say the 30th of August?
Completely dark at 8:03, in August? I'll go with 15 Feb?
Tennessee is only at 36"N and sunset is at 7.16 pm at the end of August. At that latitude, darkness follows sunset quicker than it does at our latitudes.
