Yeah. Given wind conditions, I's be surprised if it was a planned fire.

I just spoke to a resident on Blueberry Lane and they were being asked to evacuate by fire dept.
Fire on Dawson Road now and some homes and cars burned.

From what I've heard - it's a family home by Magnolia Bay. They are evacuating some of the houses.

If it started in Bay Magnolia and has now jumped the bayou to Dawson St. it would explain the response. Not in Daughettes tho. That is the west side of Bay DR. and it would have had to go over me to get to Bay Dr.

Bay Magnolia is off of East Pt Washington?

If you live over there, get the heck out. Too dry and too windy to defend the homestead with a hose pipe.

Bay Magnolia subdivision, not the street. The street is Amelia. Magnolia Beach is the subdivision off of Dawson, that Indiangrass is in.

Quit posting and get your butt to carmen's house!

I don't have room to put anybody up, but let us know if we can do anything to help people who have to evacuate.
