Scientists have long warned of the effects of global warming and the possibility of more intense wildfires that burn for longer periods of time. Now, a new team of researchers is hoping to get a better understanding of how the smoke travels and what the tiniest particles could be doing to our lungs. "There's many things we’re still struggling to understand about smoke,” explains Joshua Schwarz, a physicist with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The group of researchers includes meteorologists and weather modelers, in addition to scientists. “All together, we are deciding which fires to target," Schwarz says. Amber Soja, with NASA, describes herself as the “fire person” of the group. Every day for the next couple of weeks, this group will create a flight plan, opening the door for another group of scientists inside this flying laboratory. “We've got tremendous range, and we're carrying a tremendous payload of information,” Soja says.This lab was once an Italian passenger airliner. It flies straight into the smoke of fires. "We'll have to look at what's the altitude of the smoke we want to be in, which direction is the smoke going, how far can we track that smoke," Schwarz says.Intake tubes on the outside of the lab bring in smoke particles that will be studied. Researchers are interested in learning how the smoke travels and what it does to our bodies when it’s inhaled. Pete Lahm, with the U.S. Forest Service, says studying the smoke is important because it impacts both public health and safety. “This info will help us make in the long run [make] better decisions on when we ignite fire and how we consider smoke impacts, and that's absolutely critical to our mission,” Lahm says.

Sometimes things aren't always what they seem. Take the case of a "burglary in progress" call in Oregon.Sheriff's deputies in Washington County received a recent 911 call from a woman who said someone had broken into her home and locked themselves in her bathroom.She told police she could see shadows moving under the door.Deputies responded to the scene with their trusty K-9 officer, ready to take down a burglar. They could hear rustling noises coming from behind the door, but the suspect wasn't responding to commands to come out with their hands up.So with guns drawn, deputies opened the door, ready to pounce. Instead they were met by a Roomba, a robotic vacuum cleaner, that appeared to be trapped inside."We breached the bathroom door and encountered a very thorough vacuuming job," the sheriff's office said in a Facebook post Tuesday.The case is now closed -- but not before the sheriff's office shared a "captured" photo of the culprit. 994

Sales of medical marijuana in Michigan have exceeded million in four months, according to the State Department of Licensing and Regulation.The sales come from 54 licensed dispensaries since the first one opened at the beginning of November.Nearly 8,700 pounds of medical marijuana have already been sold, meaning .5 million will be going to the state from a 6 percent sales tax.Once dispensaries are approved to sell to recreational users, total sales are expected to top a billion dollars a year in Michigan. 527

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (KGTV) -- California State Parks officials worked quickly to protect centuries-old pictographs created inside sandstone caves from being destroyed in the fast-moving Cave Fire.The Chumash art, created by the Chumash Native Americans between 500 to nearly 1000 years ago, was covered by heat resistant tarps, a California State Parks ranger told KSBY.Chumash Painted Cave State Historic Park is one of the few remaining spaces that allow the public open access for viewing the rock art. Efforts to preserve the fragile paintings include prohibiting visitors from using flash photography.The Cave Fire was first reported Monday afternoon and exploded to over 4,000 acres in less than 24 hours, resulting in several evacuations, road closures, and an Air Quality Warning.These historic Chumash caves and their art have outlasted numerous fires, including the deadly Painting Cave Fire in 1990, which scorched over 4,000 acres. 957
