Thread Name: BS:Building in Fire prone areas - 2009 fire season
Subject: RE: BS: Building in Fire-prone areas
I was a little previous in my prior post. About six hours after I wrote we were notified to evacuate. We came back mid day Sunday, but we may have to leave again sometime Monday. God willing we won't have to.
I think I read that 42,000 acres+ has been burned. The mountain containing most TV/Radio transmissions is like to be taken over by fire. One fire is out (pretty much), but another popped up about 40 miles east. Truth to tell, we're pretty apprehensive, but better prepared if we must leave.
