American Fact of the Day! On September 10, 1995, the National Football League (NFL) saw a historic moment as the New York Jets defeated the Buffalo Bills 21-17 in the season opener.

Pyrocumulus clouds, created by the fire's heat, have generated lightning strikes that have further fueled the blaze.
