Arizona Wildfires Out Of Control

Firefighters faced a daunting 50-mile-wide fire line Sunday as they battled monster blazes that swept through a half-dozen towns and threatened the city of Show Low, Arizona, with a frightening wall of flames shooting 200 to 300 feet into the sky.

My brother's in-laws have a beautiful lakeside cabin in Pine Top, AZ, which is about 5 miles from Show Low. They've already evacuated back to their home in Tucson, but there's a very real chance that they could lose their cabin by tonight to this fire. It's a monster, and one of the worst in the state's history.
