"Currently, this a PRE-evacuation warning only,” say the Sheriff’s Office. “We anticipate this pre-warning will be elevated to an evacuation warning (voluntary evacuation) during the night. Should the need arise it may be further upgraded into a mandatory evacuation order.”

Drought, plague, fires, falling trees, floods, blocked and failed roads... What will be next, horsemen?  More fires of course.

Low expectations for the coming year out there with the insanity of hope anyway that we wil still get to enjoy these areas!

Wow! I have to be selfish and hope someone takes some video if it blows, you don't see dams breaking every day.

They don't use exclamation marks on those NOAA statements everyday do they?
