Turns out we are not...

I recieved a phone call and emails the other day about people in our area being evacuated. I should have made a note that one of the people who told me that said, when I told her I hadn't heard any such thing, that the alert only came to people with Smartphones (or to that effect). Well, turns out there was no evacuation in our immediate area -- either voluntary or mandatory. Some folks in certain situations hear something and don't bother to check the facts--they just go into "the sky is falling" mode. So--no evacuations here right now. I still have the suitcase packed -- but I have the feeling I'll just wind up unpacking it, as I hear on the news that they are a bit closer to getting fires under control. Things could flare up again, but I'm not going to freak out.
