Hello: We can use the rain in Colorado. 12+ wild fires, over 180 structures loss, tonight in the waldo canyon area, 32,000 people in the USAF, Colorado Springs, Manatue Springs evacuated. The fires in the Colorado Springs area are just amazing to watch on TV, it is just a huge red glow like you see in the TV movies. Two of my Chi's did come from Rescue Units in the Colorado Springs area. Colorado currently has over 1/2 of all of the United States forest fire fighting equipment/people fighting fires. I live near the regional airport which stages most of the air tankers. They been flying morning to dusk over the past few weeks. We have had five days of 100+ temperatures. My chi's are safe in the house but there are days the smoke from the Hyde Park fire Fort Collins which is 60 miles north of me is bad outside. It did close the regional airport for a day last week. When I came home from work tonight I saw a C-130 military tankersjust after takeoff and flying to a fire up in the Boulder/NCAR area. They can dump about 3000 gallons of water/slury in one drop. So, if you have extra rain with no lighting, we can use it now.
