OT: Please hold our area in thoughts and prayers

[Icebear]

Last evening we had a massive 8 alarm fire in our area in Lewistown. 6 row homes were destroyed and another 22-25 were damaged with 18 heavily damaged. At least three firefighters were transported to the local hospital for treatment.

Hope they all recover well - you don't mention any other injuries? A blessing if everyone got out of the buildings safely!

The fire has reflared this morning. Few other details at the moment.

Horrendous. WIll do right away. Can picture the row homes of that area very clearly (I assume you are referencing PA).

Terrible. Seems to have been too many of these big disasters recently. Volatile time of year.
