    Thanks for info! Any approximate time? I have an even huger pile of brush but will not light that one until I know it's going to rain for a while!

    For us (just checked) it's around 8:15 - 8:30 p.m., it should be around the same time for you.

    I'm sure this is that cold front moving through, we have over ten gallons of fuel ready just in case we get any winds.

    Thanks. Appreciated. I'm going to have that fire ready to go. As long as we don't have any higher winds and it starts raining I'm going to let it go!

    I just tried and could not get the fire going again. I can still see some red embers but everything is too wet. I'm done. Only hope is the air getting it going again. Little breeze here now.

    We had some higher winds last night for an hour and a half after we went to bed. Probably from 10-11:30. How did you make out last night thewoodlands?

    We had a few monsoons roll through here last night with winds and lightning. They had to call off Ohio University's football game for 30 minutes to let the storm blow through.
