Batshit crazy, I can definitely see flames jumping up off the top of the ridge

Super heated gases that condense as they go up. Once they cool enough to reach their flammable limits they ignite. It's impressive shit to see. During the Round Fire in Swall Meadows 4 years ago I watched 400 foot high flame columns go up over the Wheeler Crest. The fire itself never got with 200 feet of the crest.

WTF? Did you guys both get the same Nokia flip phone? Those photo's are super good. For 2001. lol
I'm 30miles away zooming in on a camera phone. :flipoff:

It looks like it died down along the ridge, but the smoke shifted around to the right places and allowed the flames to illuminate the whole column to where it starts to spread out horizontally in the atmosphere, super spooky seeing a red glow extending up to what 15-20k feet in the air?

Glad it's going in the other direction, but I was really hoping the east side of Beaumont was gonna go up in flames. Glad my kid isn't there this weekend. I'd be sleeping in Steven's driveway just to be near him in case shit hit the fan. :rofl:

Edit: for context my ex is 1.5 miles away from @AssBurns.

Shitty news is my AC unit had the capacitor go out (I’m assuming) and the outside fan won’t kick on. Shit....
