The Paradise fire in Olympic National Park is getting bigger (650 acres and growing), hotter and harder to contain, according to The Seattle Times. Port Angelenos can see the smoke, which is so thick that officials don't know exactly how big the fire is. The Olympic Peninsula hasn't been this dry since 1951, so don't expect fire relief any time soon.
