@JohnM Good to see you sir! I took a look in the area on AWF also and didn't see anything. Didn't hear much of anything on the scanner either. Thanks for the heads up on the Thomas Mtn burn!

I am curious as to what someone at the hospital is looking at.

Well for folks going down n 330 or 18 they will see a pretty good column to the southeast. The USFS is burning down on Thomas Mtn in RIV County. They have been doing large burns down there forever
