hey... my mum lives there (updated to add my new best friends)

never thought i’d see the sleepy little town where me mum and a hundred or so others live on national news

bout 2 miles from her home.. local campsites had to be evacuated.. so far the firefighters are keeping the fire from traveling too much but struggling to put it out as the wind is picking up.

now cans wes has rain?

(eta) looks like the military is sending rain

cool

(update time) looks like the chinook saved the day.. everyones expected to be allowed to go back home in about an hour chinook still dumping water till then at least.
