Hoping that you folks in the Amarillo area are safe, and your homes as well. Joe, Mike and anyone else in the area. That is a huge fire. Very, very scary stuff.

Nebraska family by marriage was throwing stuff in the Suburban and grabbing the kids to make a run from their wildfire a few days ago and it didn’t even make the news. We had two fires outside our little high plains town last week. Same non story. And now this million acre monster in Texas is destroying lives and livelihoods. Sad it takes that to garner notice.
Makes me remember the horrible back to back to back fire years in the west of ‘19, ‘20 & ‘21 ending with the Marshall fire that burned a 1000+ homes in a few hours. What are we heading into this year?
God have mercy.

Yes, it is a mess
Fortunately we got a heavy wet snow last night and
that should help fire fighting efforts.
God have mercy
The fire engulfed more acres that the Whole State of Rhode Island

Has it been determined how the whole thing started?

What is even worse is that it doesn't affect just the people in Texas, but it affects everyone in the world by aiding to global warming. 90% of the forest fires in the world are started by humans. I'm waiting for the next few days to see if February was the hottest month on record on the planet. I only had 4 days of mild snow all winter. Unbelievable!! Yes and quite a number of recent large fires in NA have been started by activist climate alarmists. Largest in history in Atlantic Canada they just charged a guy for starting it. Quebec, California. It is unbelievable.
The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia

California's problem is activist in the forest dept.bark beetle trees are left dead and when lightening or humans strike it blows up burns thousands of acres.
