National Guard footage of Gatlinburg fire

I just stayed in a cabin right above the two warehouses at 3:05. The entire block around us was like a war zone and leveled but our cabin we stayed in and a house at the base of the hill survived. The one we stayed in flames licked the side of the cabin and still shows the black marks. That's amazing it survived at all! The house at the bottom all its neighbors are very close and burnt on all sides yet somehow it survived. You could look to the mountain across the toward ober and it's also burnt. I walked around the hills and woods but every direction I looked I just saw structures burnt to the ground. It's aweful but they'll rebuild and bounce back. The town has done what they can to make things presentable by cleaning up,cutting burnt trees and bushes down, hauled off the trash and planted new grass along the hills and roads. I feel for those who lost people more than anything.

They shattered from the temperatures. Then probably melted from the fire.

Stopppppp Take note of everyone else avoiding you when you speak like that. We were here. What an insult to the people that lost everything and others they cared about.
