Fourmile Canyon Fire

[Raeyok]

You may or may not have heard about this massive fire in Fourmile Canyon, Colorado on the news. I live near Boulder, so I'm extremely close to it. Luckily, they've began to contain it, but even so, throughout today when I've been in town, the thick smell of smoke was everywhere. Last I heard, 92 buildings have been destroyed, 68 of which were houses, and the fire had spread to 7000 acres yesterday, but as of today, it's down to a little over 6000 acres.

Feel free to talk about fires or other natural disasters you've experienced, or at least been close to.

I saw this on the flatscreens in the cafeteria. Sounds bad.

There's a wild fire like every other month here in Arizona.

Big whoop.

Wonder how it started.

Maybe like the fire that started in my uncle's woods a few years back.

Wonder how it started.

Usually some sort of spark or heated ignition.

Big whoop.

This fire has been said to be the biggest fire in Colorado history.

I think some idiot that lives up there backed into a propane tank, or at least that's what I heard. I could be wrong.
