Fires in Norcal (I'm okay, Don't Panic Please) · 11:37pm Oct 9th, 2017
I am safe. I am hours and hours from any fires, wanted to let you know, because some discord folks were worried about me. I'm fine, and no near enough any fires to be concerned. However, a friend of mine has likely lost her home, one of my favorite wineries has burned to the ground, and many more wineries where my family are friends with/know the owners and staff are either in danger or currently burning. There is currently one confirmed death. It is 0% contained.

I don't have any news on places you can donate to help, but if you are in norcal, some hospitals are looking for on-call nurses and doctors. If you are one, or know one, maybe pass along the word?
Until then, here's to hoping the fire is contained soon, and that the damage will not get much worse. My heart breaks for my wine country. If you're living in the area of the fires, let me know if there's anything I can do, even if it's just an e-hug. I don't have much, but I'll try to assist if I'm able.
Stay safe out there.

That's terrible. Mother nature sure does have a cruel hand sometimes.
Glad to hear you are safe, Pencil. My thoughts are with those who have lost so much and I hope that the fires are continued soon.
Damn... I'm glad you're ok. It seems like a big fire. Hopefully, nobody else's going to get hurt.
1) Glad you are okay
2) I got the same all the time from my mom when BC wildfires were all over
