View Full Version : Colorado springs on fire.
As the total states we are on fire. The interstate is fucked. At around 430 - 500 a thunder storm started to brew causing the winds to pick up and drive the fire east toward northern Colorado springs. I have pics and video of the fire cresting the ridge and falling down the other side. I will get those up as soon as my phone charges. Man, I took off just as soon as I could smell smoke. It was intense.
US airforce acadamy put on notice to evacuate!

They finally got this fire put out. Mother nature helped out alot. We got a weeks worth of rain and they got the fire put out almost 2 weeks before they expected. It's sad how criminal some people are here. They were breaking into evacuated homes and cars of the evacuees here

Not saying this in the thieves' defense, but I bet they expected those houses to burn to the ground anyway. Horrible way to think, and it takes a real low life to act on those thoughts.

isn't the usual national guard policy to shoot looters on sight?
