Remember when I posted about the wildfires? Well, 67 wildfires were reduced to 40 but strong winds yesterday made the wildfires surrounding Gatlinburg, Tennessee worse and some residents have been evacutated and well, basically, part of Gatlinburg has burned down. There are over 500 individual fires in Pigeon Forge, currently. Here's an additional link: http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/28/us/souther...index.html
My brother-in-law was called in by the National Guard to go up to Gatlinburg to help clear the debris, evacuations, etc. while TEMA has declared a Level 3 State of Emergency. Crazy.
The silver lining? Those heavy winds are blowing in a forecasted rain storm; it's raining currently, but the rains could get so heavy that flash floods can appear. Noice.
