My daughter and SIL have a beautiful house on 20 acres of trees a miles south of Priest River. We’re all hoping and praying that fire doesn’t wipe them out. Very scary time. It’s 101 in Spokane today. I lived in FL so can tolerate heat up to 97 before turning on air conditioner.
That's my neighborhood too. Wet spring, lots of growth, and it's dry as a bone right now. The worst of it is wildfires coming from the wrong direction, because there isn't a lot of ingress and egress around here and it will get clogged pretty quickly if we wait too long to scoot. I keep a bugout bag ready at all times and the car never gets below a half tank.
