I had a similar experience at an AT&T Long Lines site in NorCal at which 
I had an HF station around 2004. A major wildland fire came through 
(started 7 days and 20 miles from our QTH) and took out about 10 poles 
on the feed to us. After they replaced those poles, it was a lot quieter.

I have a solid alibi -- I was in Chicago at the time.
