I actually saw a Tweet yesterday that said "CENTRAL TEXAS DOES NOT NEED FIRE FIGHTERS. Please quit re-posting. Its false information."

On one hand, I'd think they need all the help they can get. On the other, maybe it's too much of a loophole to keep up with who's fighting what fire where. IDK. It's scary, nonetheless...

A friend of mine and her husband live near Plantersville in Grimes County. She said all her neighbors have left except a few. For those who have left, she's watched trucks of people coming in afterward and burglarize homes.

As if the wildfire itself isn't stressful enough...

Yea, people drove from as far as Brownsville, on their own dime to help.

That is part of it, I'm sure. And I can understand if you use people who are eager to help, but make bad judgments because they are inexperienced.
