    Default Houston we have a fire...

    Heard a lot of sirens the last few minutes, turned around in my office to see and oh shit... we have a fire in Evergreen...
    Listening in on the scanner now, EVFD has called for mutual aid from surrounding districts. Will update as info becomes available.

    Thanks, blacklabel, problem is it's not too far from where my grandparents live, and they're in their 80's.... Scanner traffic is showing a lot of activity in vicinity of Elk Run Rd...
    On map- Fire start point is (B) evac area around (A).

    We just got the evacuation order- it's about 4 mi from my house.

    ETA: We're not leaving... JCSO is screwing up the evac orders... They're indescriminately evacuating an entire 4.5mi radius.
