Maxx Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Miri lives in Hialeah pretty close to the fires and her car was covered in ash. The sky looks so weird with all the smoke up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgator Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Right now, the fire near Bird Rd and 157th Ave is a lot scarier. Currently the is a mandatory evacuation order for about 500 residents, and homes are in danger. As I was going south on Krome Ave about 5:20 -5:30 this evening, I literally watched the smoke collumn go from small to enormous. BTW The fire in the NW area is currently at least 70% contained (hopefully it will be out soon.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1truefan Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Yep...this fire is right by my house....a mile west from me....we can see the flames shooting up in the air from my backyard.....Cars are dirty, but it doesn't matter..it washes off...

FishFan24 Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 I live just a few miles northeast of the fires by US 27 and when I got home from work Friday night, there was some ash covering some of the cars in my area. Scary stuff :confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised to see how far South the fire had moved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiRi Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Exactly, remember how we were talking about that in the car, babe? The smoke around here has cleared up so I thought it was weird that the smoke had reached all the way down there. So I guess that explains it.

AJB34 Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 you can still smell the burn outside. and i even have leaf particles on my front porch. u can pick them up, break them in half and smell the burn inside of them. its amazing how far the ashes and debree actually goes.

MiamiSpartan Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 We heard from other South Miamians yesterday about the same thing. I could not believe the size of the smoke cloud. It looked like something had blown up over there, and it was still pretty thick down here as it headed out into the bay....pretty amazing.
