Breaking News: Oklahoma City burning

#1 Postby conestogo_flood » Sun Jan 01, 2006 8:18 pm

It is on CNN now, I don't get any other news stations. Oklahoma City proper is on fire, the massive fire is moving to other neighbourhoods, hundreds of homes in the path of the fire are being evacuated. This looks like a movie!

According to the reports I am seeing on CNN that is a semi-rural neighboorhood and there may only be a few homes actually destroyed. Still a tragic situation. They are trying to contain the fire and appear to be close from reports, but WOW!!! That is horrible!!!

thanks for the heads up on this...this is so tragic. It's scary to be able to watch this live.

These poor people have been through a bombing, deadly tornados and now this. :cry:
