Only most of the rest of the state. Last count was 473 homes destroyed, Waldo Canyon Fire (last year) took 345 homes. Two dead in both fires, so that's not bad given the home count and size of the fires. I believe there are two other Colorado fires going on currently, but Black Forest has dominated the news.

Hope it is getting controlled and that you and yours are safe.

Yes, reports were it was much better Saturday as far as containment, plus it rained last night. The firefighters and National Guard deserve a lot of credit for this one.
