Can everyone just keep all those Texans that have been effected by the fires in their thoughts? It’s gotten really bad all over the state and every other post on FB is a new neighborhood or part of a county being evacuated. Please just lift them up in your thoughts.

Thanks!

I just read that 30% of the fires of contained, I hope that is true, however it seems like there is a long way to go. Thoughts and prayers out to the Lone Star state.

I don't know the exact percentage of fires under control, but the entire state has been in a drought for months so new fires could erupt at any time. However, apparently “the hairdo” doesn't consider the situation serious enough to stay around and govern. He's off in CA for a GOP debate and fund raising.

@KB,

My SIL lives in Austin and had to leave because of the heat. She had migraines that wouldn't dissipate, so she and her husband went up to the mountains. She said only one other time was the heat so bad that she got sick.

Here is what I read tonight:

“Have they been brought under control?” Romney asked, talking across the room to Perry.

“It's still too early to tell,” Perry responded. “They're serious, they're mean.” He did not mention them during the debate itself.

Hope some rain is coming your way pronto!!

@yankee

It's been brutal this summer with multiple heat records set during the last few weeks and almost no rain. It's finally cooled off a bit over the last couple of days so I don't feel like I'm in a sauna the minute I step outside, but no rain is expected anytime soon in Houston. Geez – I must be getting old. For years every phone conversation I had with my parents started with a long discussion of the weather.

Don't even get me started on Perry. Unfortunately, we're stuck with him no matter what since he can run for president without resigning as governor.
