We have a house up in Country Club Hills. Is there any talk of evacuation? We're in Ohio.

No. Not near at all. No talk of evacuation, no talk of danger. No need to worry.

It is thirty miles from here at this time.

I hope no other treacherous soul starts a fire. We really need rain.

And while we're at it...Here is a warning for all;

When it does rain for any appreciable amount after this long dry spell.

We will have sinkholes.

and it won't be the developers fault.

We live near 466A and the smell at our house was pretty strong this morning. But then we went to the Spanish Springs area and did not smell it at all. We are back to our house now, and I don't smell smoke here anymore.

I smelled the smoke this morning around 7:00 am in Santiago. It looked smoky over El Santiago golf course. As the breeze picked up, the smell began to disappear.

I thought it was fog at 6:00 getting ready for golf, smell was very strong in Duval

The Morris' are just clearing more land for another neighborhood.

Yeah, but you can bet anything that someone will throw shade at the Morse's for it.

Pardon me ma'am but I'm not from these part's for very long. I just moved here last year for a whole lot of reasons but the biggest one was you couldn't see the air in The Villages. Seeing the smoke and smelling the rotten acrid smell of burning plastic is like a Tiptoe Through The Tulips for us, sorta reminds us of home. Hope everyone involved is ok.
