Have you heard Gatlinburg and part of Pigeon Forge were evacuated tonight due to uncontrolled fire as well. So NC SC and TN all need water so bad. Pray for rain please.

@MrsKatherineArch: They evacuated the strip and then in Pigeon Forge from light 8 all the way to The Spur. There is rain forecasted for WNC and upstate SC tonight so let's pray it pours. Some of my favorite places too.

@Fungirlmmm: We spend a week every August in a cabin down there. I hope that it rains enough to put those fires out.

@Fungirlmmm: I am in WNC and I am getting anxious about all this.

@MrsKatherineArch: You might actually be there at the same time. I usually go 2 or 3 times a year. Supposed to be going next week but don't know what will happen. I usually go the end of Aug or first of September too.
