Just heard Woodland Park is being evacuated.
My brother's restaurant is there.
Update: So here is the situation. Weather indicates erratic winds will be kicking up this afternoon due to storms. Storms are only a good thing if they drop rain. These will not do much more than sprinkle, but they will kick up the wind and bring possible lightning strikes with them. Neat.
So, since it is exactly that (erratic winds powered by storms) that pushed the fire into the city on the south side yesterday afternoon (which they are still dealing with), they have chosen to evacuate Woodland Park (pre-evac in some areas, don't pay attention to the map on that...it's wrong, everything east of 67 should at least be in gold, and some of it in blue by way of what we're being told by officials). That doesn't mean the fire will make a run into WP, just that it might and they aren't taking chances after yesterday.
We have evacuees up with us now in the guest house and camping on the property. Fuck this fire so hard.
