a thunder storm just passed through about an hour ago. we could see the lightning hitting the ground. it looks like the lightning hit the hills right behind my house and started a fire. got helicopters and planes making drops.

as soon as i saw the smoke i went inside and got my water, food, and bug out bag. they are all waiting at the door, just incase we get evacuated. probably wont, but doesnt hurt to be ready.

Absolutely Tonestar. As Ken said, take care and be careful. I'm sure you know this, but for those that may be new to the threats of having to leave suddenly - make sure you take important papers, phone numbers, etc.

Hopefully you only need regard this as an exercise of your evac plan. Fingers crossed for you

They just showed that on the news. The reporter sounded optimistic about controlling it because of recent rains.

Tonster, be safe.
