LittleIzumi Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) Why not? Most of the other mountains are. Evacuations again in a nearby area (from yet another fire). Waiting to see what happens with our mountain. :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug::grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: to all the mommas here affected by the crazy wildfires this summer.

DianeW88 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Gah! I saw that...down near Alpine? My dh was down there and couldn't believe how fast it was moving and crested the mountain. Stay safe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleIzumi Posted July 4, 2012 Author Share Posted July 4, 2012 Gah! I saw that...down near Alpine? My dh was down there and couldn't believe how fast it was moving and crested the mountain. Stay safe! Nope, not that one. This one just started today, but Alpine is getting the press, as it should because it's HUGE!!!! Smoke is billowing over Timp here. Wait what? Which mountain? How will we know if we need to evacuate? Is there a website to look at, I don't have TV I've heard both that it's Timp itself, and also that it's East right next to Timp instead. Either way, hellooooooo smoke. My brother compared it visually to a volcano from our view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momteel Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I am so sorry. Fires are so scary and hard to live through the stress of wondering where it will go. Prayers for you all! Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meggie Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Ok, DH is trying to convince me that we should be ok since we're far enough away from the mountain and the roads and river will slow it down. Not like it's much of a river right now. But I do hope all those houses on the mountain are ok. I don't want a fire this close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DianeW88 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Oh, wow, Timp??? My favorite mountain...yes, I have one. :D So, is Lindon being evacuated or anything like that?

Oh yeah...Utahns are pyromaniacs. We have all kinds of aerial fireworks going off in my neighborhood. The HUGE professional kind. The "I made a run to Evanston" kind. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The HUGE professional kind. The "I made a run to Evanston" kind. :D *snort* I've seen those stands in WY.... The fire was growing when I was outside at sunset. Not sure how they notify about evacuations... like if I should stay up tonight or what. :001_huh: I still don't see anything on the news about Timp on fire, but, you know, I can see it from the end of my backyard. :glare: Unless the Alpine fire jumped several cities south (last I read it was moving north, so, no).
