fwiw, those atmospheric nuclear detonations in the '50s and '60s were remarkable for the confirmation of multi-spectral effects that physicists had only speculated on.

however on a human level, the Soviet nuclear tests near Семипалатинск / Semipalatinsk in Kazakhstan could be summed up in this quote among the locals: "...the day the Sun rose twice..."
The Soviets were not exactly squeamish about conducting atmospheric nuclear tests 'within range' of nomadic folk.

Friendly reminder to do your sky phenomenon viewing at the right time and place, not like these folks watching the SpaceX launch in my area:

The latest episode of Frontline called Fire in Paradise, is on the 2018 Camp Fire in California.
It is nothing short of a real life fire blizzard!

If you didn't know you were watching a documentary, you'd say the images were computer generated.

incredible

Them people have been living on borrowed time for over 5 years! All that just sitting there waiting for a spark. Praying for them. Not sure how they come back from this with all there other problems.
