We are/should be. It's about 8-10 miles from us. No reports of anyone hurt yet, looks like two houses were torched. It was only about 2 miles from a High School.

Never good when this happens. 2 year back during the Oregon airshow, a vintage fighter went down and took out two houses 413 yards from my house (yardage according to google maps). I heard it crash but did not in 100 years think what had happeneded did, I thought one of my doors upstairs had slammed shut. Only the pilot died then, but it is dam scary when these things come down.

Good to hear all are safe.
