I notice if there is a 1 acre fire near Denver the news is all over it. There will probably be nothing about this event. Hopefully nobody here lost anything. Lots of pasture lost. That will hurt a bunch of ranchers. Lots of wheat burned too. Hopefully the farmers were insured, but that isnt always the case. Lots of fencing and other materials lost.
We just came back from a massive series of fires. There were agencies from Briggsdale, Pawnee, New Raymer, Sterling, Logan County, Morgan County, Wiggins, state, Forest Service, out of state Kimball county, Pine Bluffs, etc. Probably more agencies than that. Asking for air drops too. Fires were all over from East of Grover to the outskirts of Sterling. From near the State line to the North to just north of Wiggins. The lightning strikes were constant. Fires just kept popping up. The super strong wind would change directions every few minutes in the complete opposite direction. All the while we are getting calls for downed powerlines across the north area.
Anyway. No real good fire pics, but some super cell pics. (from a cell phone so not great like hatidua)
