Fire on Shadow Mountain
There's a fire up on Shadow Mountain. Conditions are very bad right now. High winds and very dry. I'm going up to help Jeanelle and Patrick evacuate. 47 houses evacuated so far. The best information right now is that it's near here:

Update: OK. I went up there, and the Elk Creek Fire Department got the blazed under control. Basically, a 3 story house was burned to the ground, but everyone got out. Even the dogs were saved by one of the firemen kicking in a door and getting out the golden retrievers. The woods never did catch on fire. But the house is a total loss and the woman that lost her house was hysterical, which I can't say I blame her. That would suck in a big way.
