I haven't heard anything about needing to evacuate anywhere near me, but about a mile or so north they were evacuating people just over the foothills near the dam... I think it's not a huge risk for me (fire-wise, anyhow) because of the fact it's on the other side of the hills, and fire has a much harder time traveling DOWN than UP, but this fire has destroyed a lot of land already, and a number of people have evacuated on that side of the hill. My Brother is actually even closer than I am, and may be in one of the next groups evacuated.

Because I'm so close to it, I guess there's been ash raining down here, and there are a lot of warnings not to go outside.
