Thanks Frogger. What does a level one mean?

Fingers crossed that first responders are able to get this fire put out fast, it's been too dry lately. At least the winds aren't blasting across the front range tonight so hopefully the fire stays small and in one place.

Level 1 means be prepared to evacuate - http://www.elkcreekfire.org/ECFD/Welcom ... e06-05.pdf

Thanks jf. I googled it and was striking out. Just got a call fm Jeffco code red automated(?) system. Said fire is contained.

Always a bit unnerving to get a notification like this when you have just sat down for dinner. In downtown Denver.
