Connie, all the vegetation has been cut back - nothing touches the house. It is the roof I worry about. I may have to get a tile (or tin) roof soon - I would feel so much safer.

The fire is massive!

The usual critters are hanging around here - but tonight I was thinking about all those up there, being threatened by the fire - I hope they get out safely.

What is the roof composition?

For some reason I thought is was tile.

My brothers in Utah both have “tin” roofs & love them.

I remember when we had a fire here the FD said they hated the tile roofs. Heavy & dangerous were the keywords I heard.

Prayers up for the firefighters & their success!
