3:30 pm – FHL has requested lots of aid, fortunately, so hopefully this one won’t get away.

2:30 pm – Yet another one. My information is that war games are scheduled through August. “Really?” (To quote my friend Lisa) This could get bothersome. My info indicates heavier fuels than were present for the Stoney Dire of only 5 days ago. I don’t like that it is moving in a north-west direction.
