Anyone want to send some rain this way? If we have many more afternoon and evenings like yesterday and there wont be a whole lot of this country left. We were very lucky all the fires were about 50 miles east of our place. The thunder storms that went through here started 15 diferent fires with in minutes of each other. I have not heard how many acres where burned yet but I am sure it will a lot. We could see the glow from the fire on the eastern skyline all night long. The fire line covered 3 counties and from what I have been told streched just about 40 miles long. Most of the fires where started around 3:30 yesterday afternoon and were mostly out by 6am this morning.
Its got to the point here that everyone keeps one eye on what they are doing and the other on the sky looking for smoke. Anything that can hold water and be used to fight fire is loaded, filled and ready to roll out on a moments notice.
