Grass Fire

Happened yesterday. Patti took me to the grocery store across the river in TX, and coming home we saw a burned off section between the highway and the railroad tracks. The local fire dept. was still there but had put out most of the blaze. Just a few smoky spots left. It happened between the time we went and returned. My grand daughter's husband is on the volunteer fire fighters crew, so we waved as we went by---not allowed to stop. The highway patrol was keeping traffic moving, slowly. We seem to be starting wildfires early this year, but have had no measurable rainfall in a couple of months so shouldn't be surprised.
Tornado watches out to the north and east of us this evening also. There was one reported up near OK City earlier, but don't know how serious it was. Guess weather happens.

Is it too soon to say keep cool?
