Well I'll BE ... !

What good is FR's search feature if it doesn't find ?

Maybe I just don't know how to use it.

I punched in "Gatlinburg" and it came back with zero results

I just tried typing “Gatlinburg” into the FR search and got 8 results. But... I agree the search is flaky. Sometimes I’ve typed in what would seem to be very obvious search terms and not turned up anything (or anything useful) — then found articles by scrolling down through the forum a couple pages or more.

BTW, I’ve been looking for a detailed map showing the fire / burned areas, online - not much luck. Weather.com has a good article posted, but I’d warn all that many of the pics at the end (56 at present) are heartbreaking...
