fire -- US 50 closed between pollock pines and South Tahoe
I hope they get this one out fast.
here is a link as of this evening. http://www.thekcrachannel.com/sac/ne...26-190702.html http://fox40.trb.com/news/ktxl-07260...txl%2Dhome%2D2 The good news is this fire has a very good eastern and northern border as a result of the cleveland fire of 91. The winds at this time would blow the fire right into the area that has very little fuel.
