Alaska is burning: Early season fires have been ravaging large parts of the tundra in southwestern Alaska over the past few weeks. As of Saturday morning, over 314,000 acres of land have burned in the state in 2022. That figure is already higher than the total acreage burned for the entire 2020 and 2021 seasons. Not surprisingly, the large number of fires is creating poor air quality conditions as smoke plumes spread across the state.
