(Gap) Fire Again! (darn it!)

The fire–they are calling it the Gap Fire–has increased considerably in size and is starting to freak me out.  Amazing in this high tech era of instant communication how difficult it seems to be to get an up-to-the-minute report on the fire’s status.

The best written coverage I have found appears in our local Independent, a free paper subsisting on ads. 

Below a picture taken about about 6 PM PT from our upstairs window.  Flames faintly visible, approximately 3 miles away:
