One town away, waiting to hear if I have to evacuate, not yet. This should not be my focus but... The sky looks amazing.

3. We are due for a heavy snow storm tomorrow evening and overnight. Damn, why didn't it come today.

That would have made all the difference.

[Hortensis]

4. :) Well, while you wait,... Hope you're able to sleep well in

your own bed tonight. Weather report says western winds will eventually drop to single digits overnight.

[Ohio Joe]

16. Not sure yet, we have a "pre-evacuation alert" right now...

The wind is going pretty much west to east and it is south of us so... We'll see. It has been getting bitter cold at night and we are supposed to get snow tomorrow, I hope so

[Hortensis]

18. Hope so. Snow would be good!

14. My daughter just came to me and said that her house in

Colorado was a mere 3 blocks from the inferno.

[Ohio Joe]

20. YIKES!

We are watching in the front yard and it is definitely going to the south of us... It's maybe 7-10 miles from us. We have blue skies above us (though it is almost dark now) but it must be choking people out just a bit south of here. I hope your daughter is safe

[leftieNanner]

19. My Daughter is in Boulder

She is keeping us updated.

Stay safe Joe.
