There’s three tankers who have been working this afternoon, so there must still be some tough areas. Loading out of Rapid City it looks like.

Heard of 1 death and 1 injured plus seeing several pictures of injured and dead cattle 🥲

I can’t fathom the speed of a fire in 75 mph winds ☹️

There will be some dumb ass burning ditches, sloughs, dozed trees…ect and it WILL get out of hand. 100%! People are idiots! Anytime you give them enough rope they’ll hang themselves. It’s human nature.

Supposedly we’re at the top of the food chain…

Give any one species too much rope and they'll fuck it up!

Some of these fires are caused by flares going 90 degree angles?
Is that what the authorities are saying or is it rumors ? how do the flares cause a prairie fire ? it is not like they are shooting flaming balls of gas.

Sad deal for sure. Just extremely lucky all the firemen came together to stop things from becoming even worse than it was. Thank you to all who helped, farmers ranchers, water truck company etc.... You all saved alot with your continuous effort in very trying conditions. RIP the 2 that passed on....😥

Do they know the cause of any of the fires yet? With the burn scarring and way the wind was it appears be easy to figure out where they originated. Anyhow have a “how” yet?
