Sounds like it's about 90% contained but they're fighting 40+ mph winds.

 

[PrairieMoon]

That’s scary!

 

[Bones]

We're due here north of this current fire. Its a tinderbox out there....with 60mph gusts.

 

[Texican]

Notice how dry the area is with a lack of green vegetation except for a few cedar trees.

Texican....

Looks like South Texas. And we have wind, too. Prayers for the fire crews and anyone in the path.

It's dry like that in parts of Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, and the Dakotas. Haven't checked the drought reports for Minnesota.

Wow, wow, wow...

No wonder it's dry as a bone this winter in the southeast. The center of the country has to be sucking any moisture from all directions. Makes sense now with this graphic.

*OK LISTEN UP*
I'm not being dirty minded here! Lol, I'm really, really trying! Please, let's be adults (I'm really trying not to laugh and my eyeballs hurt) and focus!

And, no VP jokes!

Seriously, this makes sense as to the lack of humidity and rain in Georgia. At least to me. The driest part of the country is trying to pull what it needs.

Whew...

The rebuttals to you write themselves...

 

[cat killer]

Sure isn’t dry in West Central Il. Been raining 3 or 4 days a week.

 

[Millwright]

It can rain 3 inches here and the wind will have everything dried to tinder in a coupla days.

Same here in Iowa, thoghwere ont on that fire map. A good chunk of Iowa has been under a fire ban for months now,

 

[pauldingbabe]

Georgia has had fire bans all year.

Need the new growth to come in and green things up and hold moisture. It's coming soon.
