We don't normally watch the 11:00 news at night; there's usually not much news. But last night, for some reason, we did. For about three hours.
We're 3 miles southwest of the fire site; the winds worked in our favor last night and this morning; we did not have to evacuate. We did pack though, in case we were going to be ordered to, or just decided to, evacuate. Our big problem is our multitude of pets, or else we might well have just headed out to a hotel in north east Raleigh last night.
Mark Pilgrim is live blogging on this. And Joe Gregorio also posted something to his blog.
