They would deserve every day of it
West Coast fires: Hundreds of homes burned to ground, Oregon governor says
Oregon fires: Hundreds of homes burned to ground, governor says - CNN
Horrifying! The article talks about California and Washington as well as Oregon.
Yes it really is horrifying. Thanks for posting this @anneg. I can vouch for the devastation in southern Oregon where I live. The Almeda fire started at the north end of Ashland, destroying a neighborhood, and was pushed rapidly by high winds toward Medford leaving Talent (pop about 9000) and Phoenix (pop about 5700) devastated. It looks like a war zone. Among my friends, 11 homes have been destroyed, 6 in one mobile home park. They had moments to evacuate. Another friend from CA had just made an offer on a manufactured home in Phoenix last week. It’s gone. Another local friend had just closed escrow on income property in Talent. It’s gone.

Photos: Wildfires do damage, prompt evacuations in Southern Oregon
Fires are still starting around Jackson county and whole towns are being evacuated, so we have a long way to go, as does the rest of the West.
Needless to say, I’ll be keeping an eye on this development:
A criminal investigation is underway at the origin point of the Almeda fire in Ashland, where human remains were found, Jackson County Sheriff Nate Sickler said Wednesday.
The Jackson County Major Assault and Death Investigation Unit is at the early stages of an “active criminal investigation,” Sickler said at a press conference Wednesday afternoon.
“We are still in the early stages,” Sickler said. “Nothing’s been ruled out — it’s still an active investigation.”

Sending love and prayers for calm winds and cooler temperatures, charminglane! Be careful and stay safe!I'm working from home, bag packed. Evacuation warning came on Monday. Winds that were expected did not materialize. Amen.
Bobcat fire visible from my kitchen window. I am phase one to evacuate if need be.
[We checked on our Oregon relatives today and they are all okay but are staying indoors due to the smoke and ash.]
