Tempest Rime Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 So there's a big wildfire burning not far from me, making me nervous, so that's about all I can think about right now. There's a lot of smoke out.A friend of mine climbed up on his roof and made this yesterday. And the fire's estimated area has more than doubled since then.Some nifty pictures.

MyLittlePonyTales Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 I heard about this one the news earlier. Some people barely had time to grab their family and get out. Seems this thing is spreading fast. I would seriously recommend you pack up and get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Rime Posted June 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Oh I'm not as close as that video, I'm well outside of town, still a good distance away, and I am keeping an eye on the evacuation notices. It's more likely that we'll be taking people in if Fort Collins get evacuated than that we'll have to evacuate ourselves.As a very small upside, at least with all the smoke, my bees were super docile when I opened up their hive this morning.

weesh Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 We have lots of wildfires in Alaska, and we usually have to at least deal with the smoke. We've been lucky these last two years, we only had about 1 day of smoke. They are a natural part of the land, and they just let them burn unless they threaten homes or cities. Keep us updated.

Rosewind Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Yikes! I hope everything is okay! I like the smell of wildfires, but certainly not when they destroy homes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorgutz Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Careful, stay away from that smoke. It screwed my lungs up, now I am stuck with Chronic Bronchitis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
