That is awful. And seems just outrageous to be happening in the end of December. My heart goes out to everyone effected.

Watched the story on the National news tonight. Hope there won't be any lives lost but with that wind it's pretty easy to get trapped and overrun.

Hoping for safety first for citizens and Responders. Downstream this will jack home prices, insurance premiums, cost of construction materials, all those inflation factors. Because it doesn't cost enough already to live in Boulder county.

Is that a reflection from the smoke plume?

 

[TOGIE]

Is that a reflection from the smoke plume?

Yeah. I feel like I’ve never seen that before, even during the summer forest fire season.

Maybe I’ve just never happened to look at the radar during a fire before. I mean I guess what’s the point it’s not like it’s ever raining or snowing here

 

[LuketheDog]

If any of you guys know folks who've lost a home and have young daughters let me know, we have lots of clothes, toys, etc. we could pass along to those in need.

My sis is in Longmont....

I have word that the Middle Fork fire was contained, so Longmont should be fine.
