Thanks Spud but fortunately for us, it was mostly heading north east away from us. We dodged the major "wind/direction-shift" bullet this time around. Fire is ALWAYS a threat here in Nor Cal. Just something you learn to live with, I guess.
Great news everyone! Call it odd chance weather, answered prayers, stroke of luck, science of professional firefighting or divine intervention, we've had a fluky 1.25 inches of rain and downright cool weather since last Thursday afternoon.....right in the middle of a severe drought! It was absolutely POURING at our house on Saturday! I just stood out in it in my driveway lookking up like a stupid farm turkey...but loving every drop.
The fire is 92% contained as of this morning, and it's spread has all but slowed to a halt. Looks like it's soon to be history, thank the Lord!
Thanks everyone for your well-wishes and prayers! :-)
