Okay - helicopter with a water bucket flying back and forth over me all , yesterday - and now a SEAT is buzzing the area - and not a single peep from the local newspaper about fires.

(in DURANGO)

I am not finding anything. Could that be from Rifle?

I also see that nothing is there

There was definitely a helo carrying water buckets last night, and there was certainly a SEAT buzzing the same area this morning.

However, nothing shows up - so I'm going to assume that all's well for now.

They might have been prepping the area

We have thunder clouds with not-so-much water in them --- and the wind is picking up.

They might have been preparing for this. You are in a red flag warning.

I will for sure post or send you something if I hear of a fire in your area.

It's sort of freaky right now isn't it? I just got through helping for 2 days with the Black forest fire. It was hard to watch and post.

In fact we got some pics in this morning of the damage to the RGorge bridge.

Red Creek Fire: This .5 acre fire was burning at the junction of Red Creek and First Fork within the Missionary Ridge burn area of 2002. Vegetation in the area is grass and shrubs with some scattered and ponderosa pine. Firefighters report the fire is creeping through the grass. Three firefighters spent the night on scene and will be joined by an additional four firefighters today. A Type 3 helicopter was assisting firefighters with water drops as needed. The fire was started by lightning on Thursday.

Gosh it does not seem to be on the radar anywhere else.
