Hopefully the firefighters can shut it down before it gets to tomball area. Looks like they have had success not letting it jump over the highways.

Unfortunately cyfair, tomball, and magnolia sent too many resources to bastrop. Now the grimes county fire is going out of control.

My mom lost her home in Bastrop yesterday and it looks like they aren't even close to getting the Bastrop fire under control.
I wish the best to all that may become affected by all these fires.

my heart goes out to everyone as well. its a understatement on how badly Texas needs rain. My mom's coworker's house was burnt to the ground last night in Columbus.
