Psssh.  That's what they call "Tuesday" in West Texas, or so I've been told.

Hard to believe that's good news, but that's good news.

16 going into Fredericksburg is the only road that closed, not sure I'd that's still the case today. I'll be going in on 290, wasn't much of an issue yesterday, save for fuckface with Cali plates doing 10mph through JC, think they were actually looking for the former president.

It was related to the NWS 5/5 wildfire risk, "boy".

and you changed the context of what I said to suit your comment.  It was related to the dust/ wind; not the fires.

Typical.

Find someone else to fuck with, idiot.

This is the comment, about which I retorted.    Again, you just made up shit, about a comment everyone else just moved past. 

Thanks to this thread I learned I was supposed to evacuate today. There was lots of dust outside my home, but no smoke.

We call that Monday in West Texas.

so it looks like the A&M fire service was somehow caught off guard?  with nothing prepared in the area? how?  these conditions have been predicted for at least the last 3 days.

Oh for fuck's sake, sue me because your day-of-week comment was about a slightly different topic in a thread you wholly slorch'd because you don't understand how 5/5 wildfire risk could be "historic".

God you are a fucking beating.  Go deliver some pizzas.

These conditions were predicted for an area ranging from Perryton to Portales to Pearsall. If you know how to cover that kind of territory I’m all ears.

Thank God they didn't use any other first letters, it would have been even worse.

If we extrapolate it out, we could see it go to Poteet then Port Isabel.

I was going for alliteration, and I refuse to acknowledge Dumas as a city instead of a sanctuary for the mentally deficient so D was out of the question.
