The problem is not fire bugs, but rather a terrible drought, the worst in North Texas in more than 40 years. On my farm, we have literally had one inch of rain since June.
Winds were 20-30 mph today, with humidity in single digits and record-breaking heat, the highs in the 80s.
One spark can spread like wildfire, pun intended.
All Freepers, please pray for rain for us.

We here in central Texas aren't doing much better than you are. Since June, maybe we've had 1-1/2". There's been a non-stop burn-ban. I couldn't believe it when we got not a drop of rain from Rita.

"All Freepers, please pray for rain for us."
Just enough rain, Lord, to break the dry
spell, please, but not enough to cause flooding.
We pray this is Jesus' name. So be it. Amen.
