We are less than 10 miles from this fire, and are downwind. The shelter in place order now includes 3 counties. We are being told to shut windows, turn off the air conditioning and not go out. My husband is recovering from a heart attack, and I just had bypass surgery as well. This really poses a threat to people like us.
