Usually if an element is threatening us, it’s water, not fire.
TheBoyfriend™ and I are not in any danger, though the land we own (and haven’t put a house on yet) could come under threat if they don’t get the fires under control by the end of the day or so. We have several friends however who are already under voluntary evacuation from their homes and who could be facing the possibility that they won’t have homes to come back too if firefighters can’t get the fires under control ASAP (as of this morning no home or people had been damaged, though firefighters are in “structural protection” mode, putting firetrucks in the driveways of the most at risk homes).
Please keep do whatever it is you do in situations like this (prayers, well-wishes, fingers-crossed, good energies, protection spells, whatever) for them.
