Most of the people I know live in Gruver, Perryton, etc, just north of it.

Yeah, the whole East side of the panhandle up in flames going into Oklahoma now. The cold front seemed to hold the smoke down at ground lever creating an unsurvivable environment. Lots of towns evacuated.
Had to drive an hour to Amarillo yesterday and the trucks were really leaning. Very stressful drive [Reply]

Jesus Fuck.
Stay safe down there man, I'm telling you, fire is fucking scary as shit. Dude on the FD here told me there was a 60K acre fire up in Nebraska around Goethenburg too. After the snow I figured we were good to go. Guess fucking not. [Reply]

Check the forecast for home (where I make money from moisture). ****ing crickets.
I’ll be in Salida and Monarch the next 4 days.
Just got back from south of Wichita today.
Both places are far wetter than we will ever be. Fuck! [Reply]
