Nervous Night - Dixie & Morgan Fires

Catastrophic fires suck. Good luck and take care.
 
Mr. Whoopee, Craig,
Any word on your neighborhood?
I’ve been thinking about you throughout the night
 
We're still standing! Rough night, took a long time to get to sleep. Despite gusty winds in unfavorable directions, the line in Lassen Park held. The fire hasn't crossed the main ridge, primarily due to the backfire set by LNP to protect the Kohm Ya-mah-nee visitor center. Still quite windy and forecast to continue into tomorrow, but PSPS is scheduled to end tonight. The morning dawns brighter than expected.

Wishing the best outcomes for you and everyone else (on both sides of the border) facing these issues right now!

Just saw the videos of this fire on the Weather Channel Craig . Stay safe and wishing you and all others in that area some good luck will come your way .
 
Things are much better today, though I woke up much too early. The fire line in the park has been stable for 3 days now, despite the winds. We are still without power, but that's the least of our worries. The helicopters have been checking the power lines and they are being re-energized as they are cleared. Hopefully later this afternoon ours will be back on, tired of listening to the generator and juggling the loads. The cars are still packed. It could go sideways at any time, but for now the air is clear and it's a beautiful, mild afternoon. Time for a nap.
 
You should have picked a more uplifting drama!

Whishing you well. It has to be hard on the nerves. Son was at the fire last week to rotate out with one of the firemen from Sutter County. The local Fire department has had an engine and crew on the fire from the begining
