We also (like Will) used to live just down the road from this area -
with those roads closed, it'll be causing mayhem for traffic - as well
as the obvious problems for firefighters, local residents, wildlife
etc.
Could get worse before it gets better; we need a considerable amount
of rain now (good 60 hours yet?), and before the rain (hopefully)
arrives, the wind will become strong/gusty - not exactly helpful for
controlling the fire(s).
