...is the fire contained?.....I know it's been over 100 degrees for more than a month....112 the other day....I hear this first hand from my relatives.
Prayers for you all!
Latest on the Bastrop fire is that it is 0% contained, 16 miles long and 4 miles long. In addition, there are 4 more wildfires. To the west of Austin in the Steiner Ranch subdivision, (FM 2222& 620), southwest near the Travis and Hayes county line, Hamilton Pool area, 2 in Pflugerville, the Reserve and West Creek subdivisions
The fire as of the time of this posting is 0% contained. It is about 15 miles east of me. There are a lot of hotspots around but the “main” one is out near Bastrop heading southwest. They are evacuating people. So far this fire has displaced over 6,000 people, scorched 14,000 acres, and destroyed 400 homes.
Stiner Ranch hear austin is totally evacuated. 25 homes have been destroyed. This is just starting. And we are waiting for Perry to call up the National Guard to help.
